JURIES AND RECITALS

Juries are held at the end of the semester in applied music courses MU 122/124, MU 221/223, MU 222/224, MU 321/323, MU 322/324, and MU 421/ 423. They consist of a ten-minute performance session before a faculty committee with a brief interrogation period pertinent to the area of applied concentration.

Student recitals are held regularly. Attendance and/or performance at these programs is concomitant with requirements and objectives of the music program. Freshman B.M. students are required to perform on one recital during the first semester and twice during the second semester. Thereafter, all performance majors are required to appear twice each semester. Freshman B.M.E. students are required to perform on one recital during the second semester. Thereafter, all music education majors are required to appear once during the first semester and twice during the second semester.

In addition to routine appearances on student recital programs, all music majors will present a full length recital during their senior year. Performance majors must also present a half-hour recital during their junior year. These recitals are in addition to the standard course of study and must be considered only a partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation.
