Department Programs Develop Talents In Art And Music Music instructors work almost around the clock to expose the student to as many facets of the performing arts as possible. Applied music, taught as private lessons, helps develop the student as a performing artist. Music theory, the grammar of music, is the study of music composition. In music history and literature, concentration is on the chronological evolution of music and the fourth approach is the ultimate objective of music. Practical application of music encourages the student to participate in either the studio band, symphonic band, choir, or singers. The music department offers both first and second-year work toward a baccalaureate degree in music. Private lessons are offered in voice, brass, string, woodwind, percussion, and keyboard instruments. Art students use everything from live models to sewage plants to develop their skills. Art appreciation includes a brief history of art and involves critical evaluation of selected art works. A study of composition and color co-ordin- ation is the basis for creative design. Here students are concerned with pen and ink techniques, color, and three dimension draw- ing. This course helps develop eye-hand co- ordination through experimentation. Students also study the principles of design in depth. Live models pose for the laboratory periods in free-hand drawing, a study of perspective and composition.
