What can my major be in the St. Marys College of Maryland music department?
While students think of themselves sometimes as “piano majors” or “voice majors,” liberal arts study (here and elsewhere) results in a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music. That stated, most students concentrate in one, sometimes two areas. At St. Mary’s College of Maryland, you can receive an excellent music education concentrating in performing on any of the major orchestral instruments, as well as piano, guitar, saxophone, conducting, or voice; we have very fine teachers for all of these. You can also receive an excellent music education concentrating in composition, musicology (music history), or theory; we have wonderful faculty in all of these areas. While pursuing your BA in music, you can also work towards receiving Maryland State teaching certification.
