The music unit offers a minor in music to students with a major outside of music. The music minor is designed for non-music major students interested in further developing performance skills on an instrument or voice. Courses, in addition to private lessons and performing in an ensemble, are designed to reinforce the broad musical background of the student. Admission to the program is by audition for students who elect major performance and ensemble participation. Students who do not select major performance and only wish for concentrated liberal art minor in music may apply to the program through the music unit chair and secretary.
