Performance students take classes such as Live Performance, Technical Development, Improvisation, Theory of Music and Ear Training and Music Business Studies; you will be playing in bands, meeting industry professionals, mastering technique, promoting your own shows, developing your voice, arranging your songs and many other exciting aspects of career development. Songwriters enroll in classes like: Creating Subject Matter and Lyrics, Songwriting Methodology, and Live Songwriting Workshop, along with relevant industry-focused classes such as Publishing & Copyright, and the Domestic Music Market.
