Music (MUSI)

The overall mission of the St. Norbert College Music Department is the preparation of its students for careers in teaching, performance, and related music professions. All St. Norbert College students have an opportunity to enrich their musical understanding and sensitivity through courses in music appreciation, theory, history and music performance. Music is not merely a skill to be mastered, but can be considered more deeply as an expression of the feelings, values, and aspirations found throughout human history. Our curriculum exposes students to music of different eras, religious beliefs, and cultures with the purpose of developing understanding and a life-long appreciation of the musical art.

Departmental objectives include the development of listening skills, knowledge of repertoire, and musicianship, along with the consideration of student spirituality through aesthetic experiences in music. A systematic assessment process will feature the student portfolio, complete with critiques written by the faculty, audio and video tapes, compositions, journal entries, and student self-evaluative reflective essays.

Special information and additional requirements for the student majoring in music can be found in the Music Student Survival Guide available in the Fine Arts Office.
