The music program seeks to enable the student to understand
music as a distinctive form of artistic expression and to develop an
awareness of the interrelationship among music and other aesthetic
and intellectual experiences.
While Maryville, currently offers only a formal minor in music, a
robust program of study also can be developed as
a concentration within the major in
Liberal Studies program.
Students interested in pursuing either the minor in Music
or a major in liberal studies with a concentration in music should
contact the Dean of the College of Arts and
Sciences.
