[1] Courses in Music – Applied Lessons (individual instruction)
Note: The 2000-level courses are for freshmen and sophomores; the 4000-level courses are for juniors and seniors.
Required of all majors and minors (number of hours varies according to major or emphasis; see the Department of Music page in this Undergraduate Bulletin). Available as an elective to non-majors depending upon studio availability. Teaching technique varies depending upon the major instrument or voice and the specific instructor. In addition, registration in applied lessons requires an additional registration for a large conducted ensemble. Prerequisite: Consent of instructor.
An applied music fee is assessed for courses listed on this page (all MUSA-prefixed courses) as well as for the MUS-prefixed Piano Class courses (MUS 1131, 1132, 2133, 2134). For details, see the annually updated “University Fee Information” document linked from the Student Accounts website.
