在这里学什么？

The Loyola University music program invites students of all backgrounds to engage in a vast array of performance and coursework opportunities. Located in one of the world's most vibrant musical centers, and featuring a highly dedicated and award-winning faculty, Music at Loyola provides the rigorous training necessary for those intent on pursuing a career in music, while offering a welcoming environment for non-majors seeking to enhance their collegiate experience.

Music Major Curriculum

A total of 42 credit hours are required to receive a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music (B.A. in Music). The music curriculum is a combination of Music Theory, Music History and Literature, applied courses (one-on-one study), ensembles, and electives. As part of the B.A. in Music, students may choose to add a concentration in Jazz Studies, Sacred Music, and Vocal Performance.

Jazz Studies Concentration: A Major in Music with a concentration in Jazz Studies is a performance degree that prepares students to perform jazz music. Students will take courses in jazz improvisation, jazz music history, and jazz composition and arranging.

Sacred Music Concentration: A Major in Music with a concentration in Sacred Music prepares students to work as church music directors. This new concentration provides students the experience of working with pastors, choirs and congregations, building their skills and talents as future musicians and directors.

Vocal Performance Concentration: Loyola’s Vocal Performance Concentration offers a program that emphasizes rigorous, conservatory-level study in a liberal arts setting. The curriculum is designed to support the artistry, citizenship, and intellect of the singer, as well as pedagogy, performance, and collaborative ensemble singing. Extraordinary singing is nurtured at every stage, as well as care of the whole person within the liberal arts environment.

Career Opportunities

Recent graduates of Loyola University's music program have embarked on careers as performers, educators, composers, arrangers, conductors, studio musicians, and arts administrators. Graduates with a concentration in Jazz Studies have pursued careers in not only jazz, but in related idioms as well, while students of the Sacred Music concentration gain valuable experience working with pastors, choirs, and congregations as they prepare to become church music directors. Students who complete the new Vocal Performance concentration will be well-equipped to continue in the field of music as performers, teachers, music therapists, arts administrators, and choir directors. Loyola's B.A. in Music also prepares students for graduate study, with many recent graduates enrolling in leading music schools and conservatories across the U.S.
