ADMISSIONS TO THE DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC
All prospective music majors must qualify for specific degree program study by auditioning. Applied music study may not be initiated until the School of Music has entirely accepted the student as a music major. Before auditioning for a music degree program, the prospective music major is required to complete an application to the School of Music, present an audition in the principal area of applied concentration, and demonstrate a musical background sufficient for the understanding of basic musicianship studies at the level of entry into the music program. The music faculty conduct auditions. Applicants may schedule auditions by making arrangements with the office of the School of Music.
AUDITION REQUIREMENTS
Piano, organ, or composition
Auditions must include two solo piano works representing the baroque, classical, romantic, or contemporary periods.
Voice
Auditions must demonstrate clear diction, accurate pitch, acceptable tone quality, breath control, phrasing, and the ability to communicate through song. Singers must present two solo songs in contrasting styles, from baroque, classical, romantic, or contemporary art song repertory. Audition repertoire might include, for example, English and Italian art songs, German and French art songs, or oratorio and opera arias.
Contemporary Pop Music
Auditions must include two pieces of music in contrasting styles. The pieces of music must show your strength in your instrument of concentration, including vocal.
Instruments
Auditions must include at least two solo works, one of which must be a whole movement from a concerto or sonata from the baroque, classical, romantic, or contemporary periods.
Contemporary Christian Music
Auditions must include two pieces of music that will show your strength in your instrument of concentration, including vocal. One piece must be performed with no accompaniment. One must be accompanied by either a live accompanist or a pre-recorded track. Recorded work will not be accepted instead of an audition; all auditions must be live performances. Pieces should include one current contemporary Christian music example or an original CCM composition. The other piece can be from standard jazz or the student’s preferred style of music. You must bring your instrument and device to play your backing track (if necessary). The School of Music will provide a fundamentally sound system (PA system, microphone, amplifier for guitar, and a basic drum set).

INSTITUTIONAL REQUIREMENT (Chapel)
Students are required to take WS305 Institutional Requirement (chapel attendance) every semester and enroll until graduation. Students will receive a Pass/Fail grade for WS305 IR.
PARTICIPATION, PIANO PROFICIENCY, AND RECITAL REQUIREMENTS FOR GRAD-UATION
Requirements include recital participation, choir participation, piano proficiency, applied juries, and a senior recital. A senior recital consists of a 45- to 60-minute recital. All music majors (except piano and organ) will be required to pass an examination covering functional keyboard skills before the end of the junior year, including scales, arpeggio, and chord progressions in all major and minor keys harmonization with given melodies. This requirement is intended to be met during the second semester of the sophomore year. Composition majors should submit an original composition and a performance of this work at the end of the last semester. Conducting majors must attend choir classes every semester. Attending the choir class is part of the applied music course.
APPLIED MUSIC INSTRUCTION AND REQUIREMENTS
Applied music lessons are designed for students who want to study an instrument in college. Three hours of credit per semester represents one individual one-hour lesson per week and is available to all students in music majors. Credit is established through individual juried examinations at the end of each semester. Assessment is based on performance standards and satisfactory progress. No absences are allowed in applied lessons except for medical reasons. Unexcused absences may result in the lowering of the course grade for the semester. If a student cannot attend class due to illness, the teacher should be notified before the lesson. Any student missing more than three lessons will not receive credit for that semester.
A student recital is held every semester, in which students share their repertoire and progress with their peers. Students are also expected to play in a school chapel worship service at least once per semester and more often if deemed appropriate by the instructor.
