Course Updates

Music: Ensemble (MUE) Note: Students taking more than 18 units in a semester may elect to take music ensembles for zero (0) units. This option will allow students to fully participate without incurring applicable overload tuition charges. In this case, ensemble enrollment will be registered on student transcripts but no graduation units or letter grade will be in effect, as the class will be graded on a pass/no pass basis. Regardless of enrollment units, all ensemble students must exhibit the same level of commitment, including music preparation and prompt attendance at all rehearsals, performances, and scheduled activities.

Music: Applied Note: An applied music course consists of private lessons on a specific instrument or voice and occasional collaborative sessions with a staff accompanist. It will focus on the development of musical skills such as (but not limited to) daily maintenance, tone production, flexibility, articulation, range, technique, phrasing, musicianship, pacing, memorization, performance collaboration (w/accompanist), and stage presence. All of these will be integrated into the study of etudes, solos and standard repertoire. Students will demonstrate their performance skills in juries, studio classes, and/or noon recital performances. All private lessons require a tuition surcharge.
