A placement examination in keyboard skills determines the student's placement in the Class Study in Piano courses. Students with a concentration in piano or organ do not take Class Study in Piano.

**

Students should take the major area (WW or brass) with which they are lest familiar first to gain more experience in lab band. However, WW players planning to gain additional skills on a 2nd WW, might choose to take that area first. Non-WW players should take 351 before 352. 358B must be taken concurrently with each tech course (350-355).

++

Alternate year courses. String players take 490B and 464. WW and brass players take 368 and 464.

c

These courses which appear in the same semester must be taken concurrently.

The LAS world language requirement must be met. The U.S. diversity and international perspectives requirements are automatically met with courses required for this degree option (C I 406 and MUSIC 383).

Many general education and education (C I = Curriculum and Instruction) courses can easily be taken in different semesters than indicated as well as summer. Music courses are best kept in the order/semesters indicated (Most music courses are offered on semester each year).
