Music

The study of music is a field of study that describes the elements of music and includes the development and application of methods for composing and for analyzing music through both notation and, on occasion, musical sound itself. Broadly, theory may include any statement, belief or conception of or about music.

Our music program offers music for transfer (AA-T) degrees, and associate's degrees and certificates in the area of emphasis in fine and applied arts.
