Notes
Every music major is required to participate in a chamber music ensemble. At least one semester is required for students in the Bachelor of Arts in Music or Bachelor of Music Education degrees. The Bachelor Music in Performance degree requires that vocal majors participate in at least two semesters of chamber music and that instrumental majors participate in at least four semesters. Performing in any of the following ensembles will meet this requirement: MUE 105, 106 (any of the woodwind ensembles), 107, 108, 109, 110, 112, or 113, all of which are listed above. Opera Workshop, MUS 241, also counts as chamber music experience. MUE 110, Chamber Music Ensemble, provides the opportunity for students, who for a variety of reasons are not in established ensembles, to create their own chamber music ensemble which will perform suitable repertoire with the advice and supervision of the appropriate music faculty member. Bachelor of Music in Performance instrumental majors must complete a chamber music requirement each fall.
