*Basic Musicianship is not part of the Music Major curriculum requirements. Although students may need to take the course to be successful in the Major, 这门课不计入音乐专业. 这确实算在你的人文课程里.
这门课每三个学期开一次. Check with Dr. 坎贝尔确认下一个报价.
***你需要完成两门技术课程. It is recommended that students with a concentration in voice take MUS 236 and MUS 237, and students with a concentration in Instrumental Music take the two courses that best fit their needs.
