Program Requirements

Woodwind and brasswind music education students are required to enroll in and participate in all activities of the Marching Band each fall semester and in the Concert or Symphony Band each spring semester (enrollment in a Concert Band is determined by audition). Those students who perform in the Marching Band on an instrument other than their principal applied instrument must also participate in the Concert or Symphony Band on their principal applied instrument each fall semester. In addition, woodwind and brasswind music education majors are required to take two semesters of a choral ensemble (University Chorus, Concert Choir or Chamber Singers).
