Observation of professional standards of
performance.
Therefore, as a requirement for
completion of a music degree, every student
majoring in music is required to enroll in
and successfully complete Performance
Seminar for seven semesters. Graded on a
pass/fail basis, this course receives zero
hours credit. A passing grade is based on
the attendance at sixty percent (60%) of
Performance Seminar offerings per semester
and 9 additional music events. The
additional concerts must come from the
categories of vocal, instrumental, and
ensemble music, three (3) of each.
Students minoring in music are required to
enroll in and successfully complete
Performance Seminar for four semesters.
Graded on a pass/fail basis, this course
receives zero hours credit. A passing grade
is based on the attendance at sixty (60%)
percent of Performance Seminar offerings per
semester and six (6) additional music
events. The additional concerts must come
from the categories of vocal, instrumental,
and ensemble music, two (2) of each.
Performance Seminar meets every Thursday
afternoon at 4 p.m. in Squires Recital Hall
located in the Center for the Humanities.
Class roll will be taken electronically on
the way in and out of class. Therefore,
students entering late or leaving early will
not receive credit for attendance at class.
To receive credit for the remaining required
off-campus events or on-campus performances,
where roll is not taken by a School of Music
representative, the student must
bring a program, along with a completed
Recital Attendance Verification Form, to the
Music Office within seven business days of
the event. A student is expected to attend
the entire performance in order to
receive credit. No exceptions will be
made. Campus Events are posted in the
following places:
-
Lee University Website: School of Music
calendar
-
Plasma Screen located in the first floor
lobby of the School of Music
-
Bulletin boards in the School of Music
-
Plasma Screen located in the Center for
the Humanities
Be sure you receive prior approval for what
you plan to attend to ensure proper credit.
Exceptions to this policy are only granted
by the Dean of the School of Music.
Performance Seminar requirements for a
transfer student will be handled on an
individual basis by the Dean for the School
of Music and will be faithful to the spirit
of the requirement for non-transfer
students.
To attend less than the required number of
recitals/performances in a semester
constitutes failure for the course and will
require another entire semester of
successful Performance Seminar
enrollment. No student will be given
credit for any performance in which he/she
is a participant in more than one program
item.
Suggested Performance/Recital Options
include:
-
Other college/university events
-
Open rehearsals or performances of
professional music organizations such
as symphony, opera, and the like.
-
Jazz ensembles
-
Chamber music
Church performances are not typically in the
spirit of the requirement. Please email
music@leeuniverisity.edu when you have
