Course Descriptions


 

Music

Dr. Richard Bilsker, Chair, Arts and Humanities

Students will develop their musical technique to college-level standards, expand their knowledge of music literature, and refine their performance skills through group and private instruction. Students participating in Chorale, Chamber Choir, Jazz Ensemble, Latin Ensemble, Barbershop Harmony Chorus, or Concert Band, develop skills in large group performance and music interpretation.

Private Instruction - Private lessons are available on all instruments and voice to students who have attained an acceptable level of music instruction.  Students in other degree programs may register at the discretion of the instructor. Students will have 15 one-hour lessons to be scheduled at a convenient time for the student and instructor. There is a $250.00 instruction fee in addition to tuition. Students are encouraged to contact the coordinator of music for placement.

Instrumental and Vocal Ensembles - All students in the associate of arts music degree program must register each semester for a vocal or instrumental ensemble appropriate for their performance area. Other students taking private or group instruction are encouraged to participate in one of the college’s ensembles. Ensembles are open to all students and community members. Contact the coordinator of music or ensemble director for placement.
