The goal of the Department of Music, part of the School of Fine and Performing Arts, is to prepare students for their chosen musical career and to produce critically aware musicians with a broadly based musical education. The Department of Music offers four-year programs of study leading to a BMus Honours, a BA Honours in Music, a BA with a Major in Music and a three-year BA Pass degree program. Students may also pursue a combined major in Music.

Students take core courses in music history, theory, general musicianship and choral ensemble. Students in the BMus program must choose one principal study in applied music (instrumental or vocal lessons). If applied music is not taken in successive years, students must re-audition before proceeding to the next year of applied music. In their third and fourth years, students may pursue specialized interests in theory, musicology, composition and applied music. Students may elect to write an Honours thesis.

To proceed to year 4, students must attain a minimum of 60 percent in all MUSI courses. Students with less than 60 percent in a MUSI course must upgrade the course in order to reapply to the Honours program. Students who do not attain honours standing and a minimum of 60 percent in all MUSI courses may continue to year 4 in the BA with a Major in Music.

Facilities
Facilities in the Department of Music include sound-equipped classrooms, a choral studio and library, a Boesendorfer concert grand piano, Yamaha and Kawai grand and upright pianos, a two-manual Dowd harpsichord, a Casavant chamber organ and a full complement of percussion instruments. Individual soundproofed practice rooms with pianos for courses in applied music and keyboard skills. A computer music lab with midi synthesizers and state-of-the-art computer notation and sequencing software is available for students interested in computer music applications.

Concerts, recitals and performance classes are regularly held in the 543-seat Sean O'Sullivan Theatre and in the Martin Luther Chapel, Concordia Lutheran Theological Seminary. A Kingham and Pole seven-rank pipe organ is located in the Chapel.

The sound and video collection, located on the fifth floor of the Library, contains 24 individual study carrels. The Library has an extensive collection of records, compact discs, video tapes, laser discs, DVDs, CDROMs and the requisite playback equipment. There is a substantial collection of music literature, collected editions, scores, music journals and special collections.

Public Events
The Music program offers a regular series of events open to students and the general public. These include the professional concert series "Encore!!" regular noon-hour concerts and presentations and a guest lecture series featuring distinguished theorists, musicologists and composers. Students frequently attend masterclasses by eminent visiting artists.

Large Ensembles
The Department has several choral ensembles, a wind ensemble and a percussion ensemble. Participation in choral ensemble is required of all majors and combined majors. The choral and instrumental ensembles are open to any member of the University or the general public who successfully completes an audition. Students may participate for credit in various orchestras in the community (subject to departmental approval).

Entrance Requirements for Music Majors
Prospective majors must possess a level of musical literacy equivalent to Royal Conservatory Grade II rudiments as well as the necessary aural skills to complete the course requirements in Music. It is recommended that prospective majors possess a level of keyboard proficiency equivalent to Royal Conservatory Grade IV.

Prospective students must arrange an audition with the music department. Admission as a major will depend on the successful completion of placement tests in rudiments of theory, keyboard and aural skills. Details concerning interviews, tests and auditions may be obtained from the Administrative Assistant. Admission to the BMus program with transfer credits from other universities requires an overall average of 70 percent in music courses.

An audition on a solo instrument or voice is required of all applicants to the BMus program and of all students wishing to take electives in applied music. Auditions are held in April and May of each year, in conjunction with interviews and placement tests. Late auditions may be scheduled depending on available space in the program.

The recommended audition level for admission into MUSI 1F92 and the BMus program is at least Royal Conservatory Grade IX or its equivalent. Students who are not at this level may audition for MUSI 1P81. Applied music students who study with an approved nonresident instructor should be prepared to cover additional travel and instruction fees. There is a lesson fee for students who are not in the BMus program.
