MUSIC STUDY AT CUC

The study of music is a life-enriching process, involving as it does the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual components of the individual while bridging age, gender, and culture. Music thus plays a significant role in every society. Music study is aesthetic in its awareness, involvement, and appreciation of the art form; music study is disciplinary in its intensity of focus and practice; music study is developmental in its stimulation of left, right and cross-brain activity.

A music degree provides a surprising diversity of post-graduate options in the areas of music, music-related and non-music related (pre-professional) goals:

  • Music goals following graduation include private studio teaching, studio musician, orchestra player, church musician, free-lance musician, elementary/high school teaching, graduate studies in music, eventual college/university teaching, etc., or a mix of these.

  • Music-related goals following graduation include graduate studies in music therapy, music business owner/supplier, symphony publicist, music administrator, etc.

  • Non-music related goals following graduation include medicine, law, dentistry, etc. Whatever their employment area, music graduates characteristically pursue their efforts using the discipline developed during their music study, while combining various aspects of their music studies into a full and satisfying life.

Music study at Canadian University College aims to prepare and enrich the student for life by developing solid grounding in the musical arts through its various components:

  • historical & contextual knowledge through the study of music history and literature

  • analytical and practical knowledge through the study of music theory and musicianship skills

  • applied and experiential knowledge through performance studies and public performances

  • vision for mission in developing and using musical talent and skills in service to God and community
