Music Production

All students participate in world, jazz and traditional music classes, and/or performing ensembles. Hands-on training in our state-of-the art Media Center's recording studios and labs gives students the necessary preparation for careers in the music industry. Students in the Music Production concentration will focus on the technology side of music and take:

MU 101 - History of Jazz

MU 113 - Introduction to Piano (if piano is not your primary instrument)
