MUSI450

This capstone seminar for seniors in the Music Major has three components: production of an original project, professional development, and reflective response essays to writings and other media about music. First and foremost, each student develops an original project in his/her area(s) of specialization: performance, composition, production, research, education, music industry, among others. In some cases students may collaborate with each other to create final products, presentations, or performances. Second, students will examine their own professional goals and prepare to achieve them by preparing resumes, cover letters, and digital portfolios of example work in music and music-related activities. Third, students will write critically minded essays in response to a series of writings and other media about music.
