Declaration
of the Major/Minor, Advising, & Registration
Every music-major or minor student must
officially declare the major or minor and be assigned
an advisor through the Department of Music office. Advising
is the joint responsibility of the student and the assigned
faculty advisor. Although this responsibility is shared,
it is ultimately the student's responsibility to seek
the assistance of his/her advisor and to utilize the
information contained within the Undergraduate Catalog,
this Guidebook, and the appropriate Student Program
Notification and Evaluation Form. Music-minor students
are jointly advised by their primary advisor and the
Chair of the Department of Music.
The Chair of the Department of Music,
prior to the pre-registration period, provides further
assistance with advising and registration. This meeting
is dedicated to helping students with the planning of
their course schedules for the upcoming semester. All
Registration Forms require the signature of the assigned
faculty advisor or the Chair of the Department of Music
before the Office of the Registrar can process them.
The information listed below will help the new music
student to get started.
To enroll in excess of 18 credit hours
of course work, students are required to obtain special
permission. Permission is customarily granted to students
who are in good academic standing. Prior to enrolling
for an overload, students must seek permission from
the Chair of the Department of Music and the Dean of
the College of Arts and Sciences.
- All new and transfer students planning
to major or minor in music must audition for the music
faculty on the principal performing instrument or
voice and be evaluated and advised for placement in
a program prior to the their first semester of study.
- In the fall semester of the Freshman
year, students must enroll in courses in Area F of
the Core Curriculum: MUSC 1000 Comprehensive Music
Laboratory, MUSC 1301 Music Theory I, MUSC 1401 Aural
Skills, MUSC 2600 Principal Applied (Performance majors:
2 credit hours; Music Education, Composition, and
Elective Studies in Business majors: 1 credit hour),
MUSC 1501 Keyboard Skills, and the large ensemble
appropriate to the major instrument or voice.
- Students must register for Principal
Applied (the principal performing instrument or voice)
each term offered until the appropriate number of
credit hours have been earned in MUSC 2600 and MUSC
4600. Students enroll in Principal Applied at the
2600 level (Freshman and Sophomore), and after successful
completion of the level-change examination, 4600 level
(Junior and Senior).
- Students pursuing two degrees must
meet all of the requirements for both degree programs.
- Music majors enroll in MUSC 1000
(Section 01) Comprehensive Music Laboratory each semester
except for summers and the semester of the internship,
either until they have completed 6 semesters of satisfactory
attendance, or until graduation if they have earned
an S grade for each fall and spring semester enrolled.
Transfer students may transfer equivalent Comprehensive
Music Laboratory credit earned at other institutions,
if approved by the Department Chair.
- Passing the Keyboard-Skills course
sequence constitutes keyboard proficiency (i.e., MUSC
1501, 1502, 2501, 2502). Students must enroll in Keyboard
Skills each term offered for a minimum of four semesters
and until successful completion. Credit for courses
in the sequence may be obtained through examination.
Credit by examination for any course must be validated
by the course's faculty and processed through the
Music Office and the Office of the Registrar. The
requirements for each proficiency level are included
in the various Keyboard Skills course syllabi.

MUSC
1000: Comprehensive Music Laboratory and Student Convocations
Each semester student convocations,
recital hours, lab ensembles, and studio classes are
held at the scheduled class time for MUSC 1000 Comprehensive
Music Laboratory. Students may apply to appear on one
of the student recital hours by obtaining and completing
an Application for Recital Appearance form in the Department
of Music Office (HUM 105). Music majors receive recital
credits for attendance at approved concerts and recitals
(see MUSC 1000: Comprehensive Music Laboratory).
The purpose of Comprehensive Music Laboratory
is to:
- ensure that all music majors and
minors are exposed to a wide variety of musical repertoire
in live performances,
- provide opportunities to apply skills,
techniques, and methods needed to play, sing, conduct,
and teach music, and
- provide students with opportunities
to enhance their learning in the principal-applied
area.
MUSC 1000 Comprehensive Music Laboratory
is a required noncredit course and consisting of three
distinct components and for which the student receives
a grade of S (Satisfactory) or U (Unsatisfactory) based
on attendance. Students attend formal musical performances
and participate in studio and ensemble laboratories
at least one hour per week as specified by the Department
of Music. Music majors enroll in MUSC 1000 each semester
except for summers and the semester of the internship,
either until they have completed 6 semesters of satisfactory
attendance, or until graduation if they have earned
an S grade for each fall and spring semester enrolled.
Music minors enroll until they have completed 2 semesters
of satisfactory attendance. Transfer students may transfer
equivalent Comprehensive Music Laboratory credit earned
at other institutions, if approved by the Department
Chair.
MUSC 1000 Attendance Policy
and Grading
The MUSC 1000 attendance policy requires
that students attend a specified number of concerts
and recitals events each semester. For Studio Class
and Laboratory Ensemble attendance, a total of more
than two absences will result in a grade of U for the
course. Missing a Studio Class or a Laboratory Ensemble
because of another activity required by the Department
of Music is not considered an absence from MUSC 1000.
Specific attendance requirements for each MUSC 1000
component appear below.
To earn an S in MUSC 1000, the student
must have satisfactory attendance at Studio Class and
the Laboratory Ensemble.
Top
Concert Attendance
- Full-time students must attend ten
events per semester, at least eight of them on campus.
- Part-time students must attend seven
events, at least five of them on campus. These students
must verify their part-time status to the faculty
member in charge of Concert Attendance.
- To earn credit, the student must
be in the audience for the entire event. No credit
is awarded to a student for an event in which he/she
performs, except for Student Recital Hours.
- Each event earns one attendance credit.
Events include Student Recital Hours, Student Convocations,
and all other concerts and lecture-recitals presented
by the Department of Music. Selected musical events
presented by the Townsend Center earn credit. Certain
off-campus events earn credit, including performances
of "classical" music by professional musicians, and
college or university performances comparable to those
at UWG.
- No credit is awarded for attending
a repeat performance of a concert already heard by
the student.
- Evidence of attending an event on
campus is an attendance slip distributed and collected
by a faculty member and signed by the student.
- Evidence of attending a performance
off campus is a printed program and a brief oral report
to the faculty member in charge of Concert Attendance.
The Undergraduate Studies Committee determines whether
an off-campus event is suitable for credit. Students
may inquire in advance.
Questions regarding Concert Attendance
may be directed to the Department Chair or to the faculty
member in charge of Concert Attendance.
Studio Class
Each applied teacher or group of applied
teachers schedules three or four meetings per semester
of their principal-applied student. These meetings may
include student performances, faculty demonstrations,
group discussions, or other relevant activity. Attendance
is required.
Laboratory Ensemble
This activity provides opportunity to
practice and apply skills, techniques, and methods needed
to play, sing, conduct, and teach music.
- Choral and instrumental ensembles
are included. Instrumental ensembles involve winds,
brass, percussion, strings, and piano in various combinations.
Some students participate as conductors or teachers
or coaches, while the others participate as ensemble
members. Participant assignments will be posted and
announced in advance. Assignments will be made according
to student desires, needs, and program of study.
- Upper-division students participate
as ensemble leaders (i.e., conductors, teachers, or
coaches) and/or members of the ensemble. Lower-division
students participate primarily as members of the ensemble.
- The student's role is determined
according to the program of study. Ensemble rosters
are determined according to the principal- and the
secondary-applied areas, experience in Techniques
& Materials classes, and the student's interests.
- The Laboratory Ensemble utilizes
selected materials appropriate for the laboratory
instrumental ensembles and chorus, including class
methods, ensemble folios, published and unpublished
compositions, and teacher/student-prepared materials.
- A student who participates as a conductor
or teacher or coach is required, with the supervision
of the faculty coordinator(s), to prepare and distribute
the materials and equipment, prepare the rehearsal
space, and lead the ensemble.
- Attendance is required. Return to

Keyboard-Skills
Proficiency
The proficient use of keyboard skills
is a basic competency required of all musicians. Passing
the Class Keyboard course sequence constitutes keyboard
proficiency (i.e., MUSC 1501, 1502, 2501, 2502). Keyboard
proficiency is a prerequisite for the majority of upper-division
music courses. Students must enroll in Class Keyboard
each semester offered for a minimum of four semesters
and continuing until successful completion. Credit for
courses in the sequence may be obtained through examination.
Credit by examination for any course must be validated
by the course's faculty and processed through the Music
Office and the Office of the Registrar. The requirements
for each proficiency level are included in the various
Class Keyboard course syllabi.
Ensemble
Enrollment
Most musicians perform in or lead various
types of ensembles throughout their careers. All musicians
learn a myriad of performing and teaching skills through
their experiences of performing in these groups. Therefore,
to help students to develop the requisite skills, all
music majors must register for the required ensemble(s).
It is recommended that each student participates in
more than one ensemble and that music education majors
participate in both instrumental and vocal/choral ensembles.
Students may receive Physical Education credit for Marching
Band by registering for PWLA 2611.
The various UWG ensembles require an
audition for either placement or admission, and all
students must enroll. Fall auditions take place prior
to the beginning of the semester and during the first
week of classes. All auditions are completed prior to
the close of the drop/add period. Please contact the
appropriate ensemble director for information regarding
membership in a performing group.
Top
Applied
Music (Private Lessons)
Private lessons are required for all
music majors (Principal Applied), and are available
to non-music majors (Non-Music-Major Applied) who are
concurrently enrolled in an approved departmental ensemble.
Private lessons are also available to music-major students
who wish to study a second instrument (Secondary Applied).
Lessons are offered as one or two 25-minute lessons
weekly, for one or two semester-hours credit. An Applied
Music Fee is charged to all students enrolling in applied
music.
Applied music study is aimed at providing
the necessary training for musicians to develop their
performing skills to the highest level possible. Through
these studies students have the opportunity to concentrate
on developing these skills in a challenging yet supportive
environment. Regardless of the major area of study,
an applied record is maintained for each student to
document progress in his/her private lessons, ensemble
experiences, and solo performances.
All music majors must register for Principal
Applied (the principal performing instrument or voice)
as part of their degree-program requirements. All students
registering for applied lessons are expected to audition
before the faculty for initial placement. Requests from
students for placement in applied music are honored
to the extent possible considering the instructor's
teaching load. Applied lessons are held in the studios
of the individual instructors. Since some of our applied
instructors are part-time faculty, please direct any
questions in their absence to the Department Chair.
Each semester, students must schedule
the weekly applied lesson around both the student's
and the teacher's schedules. Lesson times are arranged
on an individual basis with the instructor. Important:
students who have not arranged a lesson time by the
second day of classes will be dropped from the applied
music course.
Additional studio classes may be required
as part of the applied music course. They are scheduled
at an hour convenient to all students of the same instructor.
Likewise, the following materials are usually required
for applied study: (1) Metronome with both audible and
visible indicators; (2) Tuner with meter and tone generator
(for instrumentalists); (3) Printed music materials
as required by the instructor; and (4) Instrument and
accessory items as required by the instructor.
Top
Applied
Jury Examinations
Applied jury examinations are held at
the end of each semester. In a jury examination each
student registered for an applied course appears before
a committee of the music faculty. At each level of applied
study the student must meet specific expectations, as
outlined by the applied instructor, in order to advance
to the next level. Prior to the jury examination, students
(with the assistance of the applied teacher) update
their Applied Repertoire and Study Forms. These forms
reflect an accurate accounting of applied study and
solo performance. While the applied teacher and the
committee will make final decisions, the examination
will generally include a representation of the major
repertoire, excerpts, scales, and technical exercises
studied during that quarter. Proper performance etiquette
and appropriate attire are highly recommended for all
performances, including jury examinations.
Students are responsible for scheduling
their own jury examination(s). The jury-examination
schedules are posted one week before final examinations
begin. If applicable, students are advised to have accompaniment
for solo literature. It is the student's responsibility
to secure an accompanist at least three weeks prior
to the jury time and to schedule a minimum of two rehearsals.
The applied instructor should be present at the rehearsals.
Principal Applied Expectations
Each level of applied study has specific
expectations for students to pass the jury examinations
and advance to the next level of applied study. These
expectations are outlined by the applied instructor
and included in part in this Guidebook. In addition
to the individual requirements of the instructors, minimum
skills must be demonstrated for the student to advance
from one level of applied study to the next. For advancement
from lower-division level (MUSC 2600A-Q Principal Applied)
to the upper-division level (MUSC 4600A-Q Principal
Applied), students must pass a level-change examination.
The level-change examination will occur
during the applied jury examination in the semester
when the student is ready for advancement from the lower-division
level of study to upper-division level of study. Level-change
committees include, in addition to the applied-area
faculty committee, one other faculty member from a different
performance area.
Each student is expected to practice
a minimum of one hour daily per applied credit hour
for which he/she is registered. Practice rooms are available
to all students enrolled in performance courses. Students
registered for private lessons, ensembles, keyboard
classes, and pedagogy courses can have access to the
practice room wing by purchasing a key from the music
office.
Listed below are the minimum expectations
for each year and level of applied study. The faculty
may require the student to exceed these minimum expectations.
However, no student may progress through the applied
course of study without meeting these standards.

Voice Studies
Because vocal instruments vary greatly
from student to student, requirements in the voice area
are less standardized than those of the instrumental
disciplines. This flexibility allows the artist/teacher
to select repertoire that is specifically suited to
the needs of each student. Repertoire is selected by
the teacher primarily for its pedagogical value. In
addition, the teacher considers the following criteria
in the selection of music for vocal study: over a four-year
period of study, a student's repertoire will be representative
of the literature and will include a variety of languages.
Music education majors will sing English, Italian, and
German and/or French. Other languages may be studied.
Music education majors will study some material that
might be suitable for use with high school students.
Performance majors will study a broader representation
of the literature, assuring an adequate sampling of
the repertoire in preparation for graduate voice study.
Performance majors will sing English, Italian, German,
and French. Other languages may be studied.
MUSC 2600: Principal Applied

Piano Studies
In addition to the requirements listed
below, each student whose principal applied area is
piano-whether a performance, music education, or composition
major-is required to have three quarters of accompanying
experience (one hour per week). This requirement should
be met by the end of the junior year; accompanying prior
to the junior year is encouraged if the student's ability
permits, but this will be at the discretion of his/her
applied teacher. It is strongly recommended that students
do some accompanying beyond the minimum requirement
to further their musical experience.

Solo
Public Performance Requirements
Performing in public is basic to the
musician's craft. Developing even a moderate level of
skill in public performance requires considerable study,
practice, and experience. Therefore, to foster these
skills, music students are required to present a minimum
number of solo public performances in the student's
major applied area each year. These performances are
an outgrowth of the studies pursued in the applied lessons
and must be approved in advance by the student's major
applied instructor. Generally, single movements from
a multi-movement work or a single-movement work is considered
an appropriate choice of literature for a solo public
performance. The performance must be presented on an
official student recital program (e.g., Student Recital
Hour, Junior Recital, or Senior Recital). Specific degree-program
requirements regarding solo public performances are
listed below under the heading Degree and Course Requirements.
Top
Junior and Senior Degree Recitals
The Performance major will be expected
to perform a half recital during the Junior year and
a full recital during the Senior year. The Senior Recital
must be completed by the sixtieth class day of the last
semester of study. The Junior Recital must consist of
20-30 minutes of music. The Senior Recital must consist
of 40-60 minutes of music. Music Education majors perform
either a public recital of 20-40 minutes, or a 15-minute
(minimum) program for hearing by the music faculty prior
to the semester of student teaching. Specific degree-program
requirements regarding recitals are listed below under
the heading Music Degree and Course Requirements Unique
to Each Major. Information regarding Composition Recitals
is listed below under the heading Bachelor of Music:
Major in Composition.
Prior to the presentation of a degree
recital, the proposed student degree recital must be
presented for approval to a committee of three faculty.
The hearing will consist of the entire program, and
will include the same personnel as the proposed recital.
All accompanied pieces and ensemble pieces must be performed
with the accompaniment or complete ensemble. The committee
will consist of the student's applied teacher, a teacher
of the same or a closely allied instrument, and a teacher
from a different applied area. Approval requires that
a majority of the committee concur that the recital
is ready for performance at the time of the hearing.
Degree-recital hearings must occur at
least three calendar weeks prior to the proposed recital
date. Recitals that are not approved may be heard again
during the next semester of study.
Following a successful Recital Hearing,
the Recital Hearing Approval Form signed by all members
of the faculty committee will serve as the Cashen Hall
reservation form and program copy. This form can be
obtained from the department office.
Securing
an Accompanist
Students who need an accompanist for
a Student Recital Hour or for an Applied Jury Examination
are generally served with an accompanist (e.g., applied
teacher, staff accompanist, or piano faculty). However,
students who require accompanying services for a Junior,
Senior, or comparable recital must secure an accompanist
(with the assistance of the applied instructor) and
are advised to pay the customary price for accompanying
services. Accompanist rates vary, therefore, it behooves
the student to make arrangements with an accompanist
well in advance and to negotiate a fair fee for these
services.

TECH
SUPPORT: Listening Facilities, Computer Labs,
SmartMusic labs
A collection of recordings is housed
on the third floor of the Ingram Library, adjacent to
the music scores. Students may listen to CDs, cassette
tapes, and LPs at listening stations located in carrels
on the first floor of the library's west wall. Request
headphones at the circulation desk. Recordings and scores
may also be checked out of the library on a limited
basis. There are also two SmartMusic labs in
the practice room area on the first floor of Humanities.
SmartMusic is an interactive, computer-based
practice system that provides students with variable
accompaniment for their solo instruments.
Computer Labs
Numerous computers are available for
student use in the Ingram Library and in various academic
buildings on campus. The Music Technology (MIDI) Lab
is located in HUM 141.
The Music Technology (MIDI) Lab is dedicated
to support instruction in music theory, aural skills,
composition, improvisation, orchestration, arranging,
music education, and music technology. Music History,
Literature, and Music Appreciation courses are supported
by computers in the MIDI Lab and the open labs.
Access to the MIDI Lab is obtained through
enrollment in the appropriate music courses and by virtue
of having music-major status. Instruction on the use
of the computers and the music software is provided
within the content of the courses that use this technology.
INSTRUMENTS
and LOCKERS
University-Owned Instruments
University-owned instruments are intended
for use in West Georgia music classes. If enrolled in
the appropriate course, students may check out instruments
for use in instrumental ensembles, instrumental classes,
or applied study with university faculty.
For students wishing to use West Georgia
instruments, a limited supply of instruments is available
through the Director of Bands for check-out. An instrument
contract must be filled out completely and signed by
the student. Upon termination of the contract the Director
of Bands or an appropriate staff member must sign the
original contract and verify that the condition of the
instrument received is the same as when it was checked
out. Students are encouraged to purchase instruments
as a personal investment as well as to purchase the
music and materials used for applied study.
Lockers
Lockers suitable for securing instruments
are located on the second and third floors of the Humanities
Building. Arrangements may be made through the University
Band Office (HUM 332) to secure a locker.
