Voice Performance, Performer’s Diploma

Total: 20 Credit Hours

Note: Recitals include three public performances on campus, two of which must be solo recitals of approximately one hour in length. One must include songs and arias; one must include chamber music. One performance may be selected from an additional recital, a substantial performance with orchestra (to be approved by the voice faculty), an operatic role equivalent to an AGMA “A” or “B” rating, a chamber music recital or a lecture-recital. The three recitals will be graded by the head of voice, the student’s voice teacher or other voice faculty member if the teacher is the head, and another music faculty member. A pre-recital hearing before the voice faculty is required. Not less than 3/4 of the recital material must be performed from memory at the hearing. Complete printed material for the recital is required at the hearing.
