3 Purposes, Objectives, Standards T he Evangel University Department of Music is vitally interested in the spiritual, academic, social, and aesthetic development of every student. The purpose of the department is to provide an excellent musical education that is thoroughly integrated with the university s emphasis on the development of strong Christian character. Within this framework, students are required to grapple with new intellectual, musical, aesthetic, social, ethical and technological challenges. The Department of Music s objectives are: To bring a breadth of stimulating intellectual experiences in music that will challenge each student to become a thinking and disciplined person responsive and sensitive to the needs of society. To encourage the search for the good and the beauty in music through formal study and consistent exposure to a variety of fine aesthetic experiences. To acquaint students with the physical properties of sound, the theoretical aspects of music found in nature, and the compositional procedures developed from universal natural principles. These objectives are realized by means of a well-established music curriculum, a highlytrained music faculty, and many varied performance opportunities. The entire campus community is provided many worthwhile concerts and recital programs, inspiring Chapel music, and various guest artists through the university Artist Series. The Department of Music is a member of the National Association of Schools of Music and the Missouri Association of Departments and Schools of Music. Courses and degree plans are designed to satisfy requirements of these accrediting agencies. The degree program leading to the Bachelor of Music in Music Education also conforms to certification requirements of the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Schools and the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education. The Department of Music is an integral part of Evangel University. Therefore, students are under the same rules for attendance, discipline, and exams that prevail in all other parts of the university. Regulations and requirements not specifically described in the Music Handbook will be governed by the rules in the University Catalog and the Student Handbook. While professors make every effort to be helpful in the pursuit of academic/musical excellence, evaluation is based on high collegiate standards. Students are expected to be on time for classes, lessons, rehearsals, and appointments. Students should develop a mature professionalism by consistent practice and study, and maintain the responsibility for their own continuing motivation. Music majors should monitor extracurricular activities to leave ample time for study and practice. Academic pursuits must be given high priority. The atmosphere and philosophy of the Department of Music is centered on the biblical concept of stewardship. The desire is to seek to develop the gifts given to us by God to the highest degree. A student with insufficient musical background and accomplishment in a particular applied area may be enrolled on a conditional basis. If there is not satisfactory progress, the student will be continued at a lower applied level until such time as the deficiency is made up. A student with significant deficiencies should probably not plan to graduate in 4 years. 3 P a g e

An audition in the primary area of study (voice, keyboard, or instrumental). Repertoire suggestions can be found on the Evangel University Department of Music website. Pianists and instrumentalists will demonstrate proficiency on scales. Sight-reading in the area of performance concentration will also be required. On-site auditions are preferred. 2. Vocalists will be given an Ear Training/Tonal Memory exam. 3. A short personal essay describing what aspirations the student has in pursuing a career in music.

Transfer students from other institutions must successfully complete the music audition process by the conclusion of this first semester of study. At the conclusion of this semester, the jury members will make a formal recommendation to the Department Chair regarding the ability of the transfer student to be successful in that performance area. 4.

Be accepted on a conditional status for a period of one semester, at which time they must re-audition during the semester jury exam. 3. Be advised to pursue another area of study or possibly to minor in music. 9 P a g e
