Applied Music Ensembles

All ensembles stress the study and performance of a broad range of music literature appropriate to the general aims of the liberal arts curriculum. Choral and instrumental ensembles are offered for credit in the long terms only (not all ensembles are offered every long term). The listed ensembles grant one credit hour per term, require a minimum of 2.5 hours of rehearsal per week, and are graded Pass/Unsatisfactory only (these hours do not count against the college’s limit of 7 hours of ungraded coursework). Music majors and minors are strongly urged to participate in an ensemble every term. A maximum of six hours of ensemble credit may be applied toward requirements for the degree.
