Music

The study and performance of music has been a special feature of Mount Allison University since the first Certificate in Music was granted in 1874. At the present time, music offerings range from degree programs which prepare students for professional careers in music to elective courses designed especially for Arts, Commerce, Fine Arts, or Science students. The Department's splendid facilities and versatile faculty enable Mount Allison to provide a thoroughly professional experience within a small, residential, liberal arts university.

The Department of Music offers programs leading to the Bachelor of Music and Bachelor of Arts, (Major or Honours in Music) degrees. Each program is designed to develop well-rounded musicians as well as to provide students with a sound basis in the liberal arts. A Minor in Music is available to students in any program at Mount Allison. The various curricula conform to the Guidelines adopted by the Canadian University Music Society. A wide variety of courses are offered in the following areas: Theory and Composition, Music History and Literature, Music Education, Applied Studies, and Performance Electives.

The Department of Music also offers courses and ensembles as electives for students outside the Bachelor of Music, B.A. (Honours or Major in Music), and Minor in Music programs. MUSC 2001 and 2011 are basic courses in the study and appreciation of Music which are designed for non-Music students. MUSC 1001 is available to students without prerequisite. Enrolment in MUSC 1101 is determined by an Entrance Assessment. Other courses are open with Departmental permission and/or upon completion of the necessary prerequisite(s). Subject to auditions, all students may participate in the Music Department's ensembles, which are valued at one credit per year of participation.

Note:  For information concerning the Bachelor of Music Degree Requirements, see Section 11.6 - Music.

For a full description of the Marjorie Young Bell Conservatory of Music and its fine facilities, see Section 1 - Introduction (The Campus) - Marjorie Young Bell Conservatory of Music.
