Performance Fundamentals Certificate

The Performance Fundamentals Certificate was implemented to help students prepare for employment in an instrumental or vocal performance-related field. It can also be used by students who want to fulfill the requirements of the first two years of a four-year music performance degree. Classes taken in the program incorporate both traditional and contemporary music studies, and lessons along with ensemble participation build competency in performing.
