Licenciatura en Música

The music program offers both a major and a minor, as well as courses and activities for non-majors. Courses are designed to teach students to listen to music intelligently, develop musical perception, master the skills of music, and apply them creatively. Our curriculum acquaints students with music across a broad stylistic, cultural, and historical spectrum. The study of music can open new perspectives on many aspects of culture and society, therefore Clark’s music program stresses the advantages of combining professional musical development with the humanistic breadth offered by a strong liberal education. Courses and ensembles are open to majors and non-majors. Assignments and projects are designed to suit the different goals and backgrounds of the students in each category.

The Music Major requires 11 courses: 3 foundational, 7 based on the student’s area of concentration, and 1 non-music VPA course. In addition, students must take 2 semesters of music performance in an ensemble, which we count as .5 units per semester. Therefore, the music major requires a minimum 12-course units.
