The Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Music Performance offers students another avenue of advanced applied study, upon completion of a BM in Music Performance or equivalent degree. Students may pursue the PBC in the following areas of performance: piano, voice, woodwinds, brass, percussion, and strings. Students can complete the PBC either before or after the completion of the M.M. degree. The PBC in Music Performance supplies students with a higher level of concentration on the performance medium, accommodated by greater focus on lessons, ensembles, and other performance-related skills. Students who have pursued a degree other than Music Performance (e.g., Music Education, Musicology, Music Therapy, Music Business, or even a subject outside Music) but who seek a higher level of professional development in this area will also benefit from the applied performance concentration of the PBC.
