In the University Program, students can explore music and other areas of study. At the same time, students have much latitude as to where they wish to invest the sharpest and deepest of their intellectual inquiries and creative endeavors.
In the Bachelor of Arts program, approximately 1/3 of your courses will be involved with music, while 2/3 of your courses will be in the liberal arts. Additional undergraduate opportunities for study and a potential double major in the arts, humanities, social sciences and natural sciences are especially rich. The University Program also boasts 3+2 programs that allow students to complete both the BA in music and a master's degree, within 5 years. For 3+2, Lamont partners with the Colleges of Education (BA/MA) and Business (BA/MBA).
As such, the BA still contains a performance component and thus an audition is required. The audition material is exactly the same as the Bachelor of Music program, in each discipline As a bassoon student, you have the opportunity to study with the principal Bassoonist of Colorado Symphony Orchestra, Chad Cognata. You will also perform under the baton of Maestros Lawrence Golan and Joseph Martin in the spectacular Gates Concert Hall. Studio space is limited, so all music majors enjoy a wealth of performance time.
You are invited to explore our website to learn more about this exciting opportunity of studying music at Lamont.
