The Music Performance degree program is designed for students dedicated to achieving excellence in their chosen instrument. At UNK, an experienced faculty will help you develop a high level of skill through the practical application of music theory and techniques, private instruction and recital opportunities.
This program leads to a Bachelor of Music in Performance. Because of the nature of this professional objective, students entering this program must demonstrate outstanding musical abilities in an orchestral or band instrument.
Throughout your time at UNK, you will have the opportunity to study performance with outstanding musicians, appear in both group student recitals as well as full-length junior and senior recitals and broaden your understanding through a strong liberal arts curriculum. Graduates leave the program equipped for master's level study or for entry into many performance or teaching positions.
