Student performance project

Faculty:
from Performance and Composition Programs

The Performer/Composer Program offers a unique curriculum that allows advanced students to fully immerse themselves in creative practice–specifically, the merging and integration of composition and performance. Students in this program are high–level practitioners in composition and expert performers on their individual instruments. As such, they are expected to explore new ways of fusing the two areas.

The curriculum for this program assumes that performing and composing are integral parts of each student's unique work, but does not prescribe any particular style or emphasis or body of literature. At the graduate level, the curriculum provides comprehensive training in cutting–edge performance and composition techniques. It also includes studies that link performance/composition with practices outside of music.
