It is an ideal degree for musically talented students who plan to pursue graduate programs that will accept a bachelor’s degree in any academic major, such as law, international studies, and music therapy. The general studies credits within the major allow students to add specialized courses from any other area. The degree is organized into two tracks: a) the Recital Track for students who are capable and desirous of performing a senior recital; b) the Project Track for students who are more interested in presenting their senior capstone event through a research project. Program Objectives Upon completion of the B.A. in music curriculum, students will be able to: • Visually and aurally identify the building blocks of musical composition. • Formulate, articulate, and defend a philosophy of music based upon sound interpretation of biblical principles. • Demonstrate facility in the use of music technology. • Perform proficiently in private lessons and in a large ensemble. -- Recognize the factors that contribute to an artistic musical performance. -- Fairly appraise and evaluate their musical performances as well as those of others. -- Compile a repertory for their instrument. • Research, plan, and perform/present a capstone senior recital or senior project. -- Recital Track: Interpret music appropriately according to accepted performance practice. -- Project Track: Investigate and report on a selected aspect of music. • Value the functional role and stylistic diversity of music from various historical periods and cultures.
