The Song of Lourdes (WMA)
Lourdes offers music instruction as enrichment; as an option which plays a vital part in forming the complete person, one who creates in order to enhance perception. Courses provide opportunities for learning the theory and technique of creating and appreciating music, broadening musical taste and experience, and developing skills and criteria needed to evaluate music and musical performance. The department shares in Lourdes' mission to offer artistic enrichment for the student as a whole and unique person.
The student interested in music may obtain a Bachelor of Arts degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a concentration in music or a Bachelor of Arts degree with a minor in music.
