Bachelor of Arts in Music - Performance

Aspiring performers present two recitals under the guidance of their private instructors and a departmental coordinator. A well-rounded approach to performance is encouraged through literature and pedagogy (teaching) courses taught in small, personal groups by area experts. Music fills our world and we believe that musical and cultural literacy are critical for Christian musicians. Our Music program provides Christ-centred mentorship and exciting peer collaborations, along with abundant opportunities to hone your musical and leadership skills. Mentorship from professors will take your passion for music and help you develop your ability to impact culture as a performer, educator, creator, or scholar.
