Chamber Music    1 s.h

Catalog description

Mixed chamber music groups may be initiated by students and, pending final approval, run under this course code. Groups will be regularly coached by a faculty member and will also rehearse independently. Each member of the group must be prepared for rehearsals and coachings, through individual practice of his or her part and through score study. This course may fulfill in part the chamber ensemble requirement for music majors. “Mixed chamber” will be defined as any small, non-conducted group beyond those specific groups already listed in the undergraduate course catalogue. Such groups will typically be comprised of representatives of different instrument families (brass quartet or woodwind quintet, string trios, etc.), and occasionally comprised of different instruments within the same family, such as saxophone quartet. The course will be optional for vocal students. Vocal students taking the course must work collaboratively with piano students and/or other instrumental or mixed voice students. Prereq.: Permission of the School of Music Chair/Chamber Music Coordinator; May be repeated for credit. Coreq.: Major-applied lessons.
