The Bachelor of Science (B.S.) with a major in music is a comprehensive program that prepares students for professional careers in performance, composition, and music business. The program is also designed for students who intend to pursue graduate studies or become music educators. Students hone their skills through a course of study that emphasizes performance experience. Coursework is augmented by on-campus visits by musicologists, performers, critics, composers, administrators, and educators who share their insights on the current trends in music.
Acceptance as a music major is contingent upon passing a performance
audition. Theory and ear-training tests are required for proper placement within the sequence of theory and musicianship courses. This audition and set of tests must be completed before final admission to Adelphi University is granted.
