These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school. A Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Music with a minimum standing of B+ is required. Acceptance to the M.Mus. in Performance requires specialization at an advanced level in a specific performance medium (e.g., violin, piano, voice). Applicants are encouraged to audition in person. The audition repertoire should reflect a level of difficulty and variety appropriate for a graduate program, and be of at least thirty minutes in duration. If live audition is not possible, applicants may submit a high-quality, unedited CD recording of at least thirty minutes duration, with repertoire selected as specified for live audition; in addition, these applicants are also encouraged to send a videotape or DVD as well. Please note however that some instructors may require live audition for acceptance to their class. For additional information please contact the instructor or the Graduate Adviser. |
