This program consists of a two-semester, 18-credit course of study, which hones a promising performer’s skills through intensive work in applied lessons, solo and ensemble performance, repertoire, and recitals. Certificate programs such as this can serve as an intermediary link between degrees or as a preparation time leading to a national or international performing career or positions with professional orchestras throughout the world.

Please note that this is not a graduate degree but a one-year course of study comprised of graduate-level classes with a certificate upon completion.
