Voice

The programs of study for voice majors are designed to develop skilled performers in all areas of vocal techniques and to offer opportunities to perform in a wide variety of vocal literature classes. Students will achieve a high degree of professional competence and learn appropriate stylistic approaches to the literature of various historical periods.

In addition to studies with our expert faculty, students are provided additional opportunities to sing for and observe world-renowned guest artists.
