PROGRAM  INFORMATION    
 
INTRODUCTION    
 
The  Department  of  Music,  a  large,  diverse  and  multi-­‐talented  community  of  artists  and  scholars,  recognizes  the  
importance  of  music  as  an  essential  component  of  the  human  experience.  The  Department  has  a  long-­‐standing  
comprehensive  vision  that  seeks  to  reflect  the  cultural  mosaic  of  Canada  by  promoting  the  “world  of  music”  to  its  
students  and  to  the  wider  community  through  research,  conducted  by  both  faculty  and  graduate  students,  and  
through  the  delivery  of  a  broad  and  innovative  curriculum.    
 
 
The  Department  of  Music  is  part  of  the  Faculty  of  Fine  Arts,  located  in  a  complex  of  buildings  on  the  south  side  of  
the  Harry  W.  Arthurs  Common.  The  Department  moved  to  the  Accolade  East  Building  in  2005  (371  Accolade  East)  
and  now  enjoys  a  state-­‐of-­‐the-­‐art  facility  complete  with  a  320-­‐seat  recital  hall  (the  Tribute  Communities  Recital  
Hall),  digital  studios,  and  numerous  practice  modules.

GRADUATE  PROGRAM  IN  MUSIC  
 
The  Graduate  Program  in  Music  is  offered  by  the  Faculty  of  Graduate  Studies  and  leads  to  the  MA  and  PhD  
degrees.  Faculty  members  include  composers,  performers,  jazz  artists,  conductors,  theorists,  musicologists  and  
ethnomusicologists  who  share  a  concern  for  the  critical  study  of  issues  and  procedures.  
 
The  program  offers  a  wide  range  of  courses  and  is  especially  supportive  of  independent  research  and  creative  
activity.    Recognition  is  given  to  the  multiple  cultures  that  coexist  in  contemporary  society  and  to  the  many  
contexts  and  issues  which  shape  musical  expression.  Members  of  the  program  are  concerned  with  the  scholarly  
and  creative  activities  involved  in  composition,  improvisation,  repertoire  development,  tradition  and  innovation,  
recording  and  music  technology,  aural  cognition,  mediation  and  reception,  popular  music,  ethnography,  cultural  
studies,  historical  traditions,  and  criticism.    
 
The  Program  also  participates  in  a  three-­‐year  Program  leading  to  a  double  degree  (MA  and  MBA)  in  Music  and  
Business  Administration/Arts  Administration.

CURRICULUM  
 
The  general  objective  of  the  curriculum  is  to  provide  a  broad  foundation  of  musicianship,  integrating  music  making    
of  many  different  kinds  with  the  development  of  mind  and  imagination.    Studies  of  Western  music  are  central  to  a    
curriculum  that  places  them  in  a  larger  context  so  as  to  foster  a  pluralistic  perspective.    The  department  gives    
particular  emphasis  to  musical  creativity,  defined  in  relation  to  contemporary  concerns  and  practices  (exploration  of    
sound  imagery,  MIDI,  electronics,  collective  improvisation,  interaction  with  other  arts  and  media)  and  allied  with    
pertinent  research  disciplines.    Special  prominence  is  also  given  to  performance  programs  in  chamber  music,  jazz,    
contemporary  improvisation,  world  musics,  and  to  ethnomusicological  studies.  
 
The  number  of  credits  (3.0,  6.0,  9.0)  is  indicated  after  the  course  number  (e.g.,  FA/MUSI  1000  6.0).  
 
The  Foundation  Courses  
 
All  students  majoring  in  music  complete  a  sequence  of  foundation  courses  which  equips  them  with  essential  
concepts  and  practical  skills  in  ear  training,  sight  singing,  rhythm,  theory,  and  awareness  of  the  social,  cultural,  
and  historical  contexts  of  music.  A  student  may  be  exempted  from  a  foundation  course  by  passing  a  proficiency  
test  in  September.    
 
Each  first-­‐year  student  takes  FA/MUSI  1000  6.0  Workshop  in  Musicianship,  and  FA/MUSI  1200  9.0  Musics  and  
Cultures  I.    All  entering  students  must  account  for  these  two  courses  (15  credits).    Each  second-­‐year  student  takes  
FA/MUSI  2201  3.0  Counterpoint,  FA/MUSI  2202  3.0  Harmony,  and  FA/MUSI  2200  6.0  Musics  and  Cultures  II.

OTHER  PROGRAM  OPTIONS  
 
MINOR  IN  MUSIC  
 
Honours  degree  students  in  the  Faculty  of  Liberal  Arts  and  Professional  Studies,  Environmental  Studies  or  Fine  
Arts  may  earn  a  minor  in  music  by  completing  a  minimum  of  30  credits.  
 
Music  minors  must  satisfy  the  same  entrance  requirements  as  music  majors  (i.e.,  successfully  complete  an  
audition  held  in  the  Spring)  and  maintain  a  minimum  cumulative  grade  point  average  of  5.0  (C+).    Only  a  limited  
number  of  students  will  be  accepted  into  the  minor  Program  in  a  given  year.    
 
MINOR  IN  OTHER  FINE  ARTS  DEPARTMENTS  
 
Faculty  of  Fine  Arts  students  cannot  have  two  majors  within  the  Faculty  of  Fine  Arts.  However,  Music  majors  may  
have  a  minor  only  in  the  specified  areas  of  concentration  from  the  following  departments  (requirements  for  each  
Program  are  described  in  the  York  Undergraduate  Programs  Calendar):  
  Dance  -­‐  studies  only;  
  Film  -­‐  studies  only;  
  Theatre  -­‐  studies  or  production;  
  Visual  Arts  -­‐  art  history  or  studio.    
  Digital  Media  -­‐  Computational  Arts  and  Technology.

Studies,  Faculty  of  Fine  Arts,  Environmental  Studies  or  Science  and  Engineering  all  within  the  framework  of  120  
credits  described  above,  by  merely  fulfilling  their  free  elective  and  non-­‐Fine  Arts  credits  in  that  particular  
discipline.    A  minor  usually  requires  30  credits.    Popular  major-­‐minor  combinations  include  music  and  
anthropology,  music  and  computer  science,  music  and  psychology,  music  and  languages  or  music  and  biology.    A  
prospective  major/minor  or  double  major  candidate  should  refer  to  the  appropriate  departmental  supplementary  
calendar  for  specific  requirements.

HONOURS  DOUBLE  MAJOR  BA  DEGREE  PROGRAM  WITHIN  THE  FACULTY  OF  FINE  ARTS  
 
The  Specialized  Honours  Double  Major  BA  degree  within  the  Faculty  of  Fine  Arts  allows  students  to  combine  a  
major  in  dance,  film,  music,  theatre  or  visual  arts  with  a  second  major  offered  through  dance,  film,  music,  theatre  
or  visual  arts.  The  Specialized  Honours  BA  program  may  be  pursued  jointly  with  other  Specialized  Honours  BA  or  
Specialized  Honours  BFA  programs  in  the  Faculty  of  Fine  Arts.  While  the  Honours  Double  Major  BA  degree  within  
the  Faculty  of  Fine  Arts  may  be  pursued  jointly  with  another  Specialized  Honours  BA  or  Specialized  Honours  BFA  
program  in  the  Faculty  of  Fine  Arts,  the  Honours  Double  Major  combination  of  two  Honours  BFA  programs  is  not  
an  option.  
 
REGISTRATION  IN  THE  FACULTY  OF  EDUCATION  
 
Two  Bachelor  of  Education  Programs  are  available  at  York:  
I    Concurrent  
II  Consecutive  
 
The  Concurrent  Program  
 
The  following  is  a  set  of  sample  course  configurations  for  students  interested  in  the  Concurrent  Program  of  the  
Faculty  of  Education  leading  to  a  combined  Honours  Degree  in  Music  and  a  Bachelor  of  Education  degree.  (The  
latter  is  required  for  certification  to  teach  in  the  Ontario  school  system.)    Ultimately,  there  are  many  variations  to  
this  course  of  study.  This  is  a  recommended  prospectus  and  students  are  not  obligated  to  follow/adhere  to  it  
strictly.    Keep  in  mind  that  the  Concurrent  Program  requires  the  student  to  navigate  through  two  separate  
faculties  and  sets  of  degree  requirements  throughout  the  course  of  the  five  year  plan.    The  individual  student  is  
ultimately  responsible  for  their  own  course  selections.    Students  should  ensure  that  they:  
 
i)     are  completing  all  mandatory  courses  in  the  Department  of  Music  and  the  Faculty  of  Education;  
ii)     have  a  sufficient  credit  total  to  graduate  with  an  Honours  degree  (120  credits);    
iii)     have  fulfilled  all  course  requirements  outside  of  the  Department  of  Music  (e.g.  Gen.  Ed.  electives,  
required  Education  courses,  and  Fine  Arts  courses)  and  
iv)     have  accumulated  sufficient  courses  for  a  second  teachable  subject  if  their  intended  course  of  study  is  
the  Intermediate/Senior  stream.    Please  refer  to  the  “York  University  Undergraduate  Calendar  2014-­‐
2015",  for  a  list  of  second  teachable  subjects.    For  Intermediate/Senior  you  must  complete  24  credits  in  
your  secondary  teaching  subject.  
 
When  applying  to  the  Faculty  of  Education,  generally  in  the  Winter  term  of  the  student’s  first  year,  students  will  
be  asked  to  apply  to  one  of  the  three  particular  streams  of  study:  
 
i)     Primary/Junior  (Junior  Kindergarten  –  Grade  6)  
ii)     Junior/Intermediate  (Grade  4  –  Grade  10)  
iii)     Intermediate/Senior  (Grade  7  –  Grade  12)  
 
Information  sessions  sponsored  by  the  Faculty  of  Education  concerning  applications  to  the  Concurrent  Program  
begin  in  January.    Contact  the  Faculty  of  Education,  242  Winters  College.  
 
15
The  Consecutive  Program            
 
Students  may  apply  to  the  Consecutive  Program  after  having  completed  their  Honours  degree  in  music;  alternatively,    
students  may  apply  after  having  completed  their  BA  degree  (90  credits)  in  music.    However,  given  the  enrolment  
limitations  of  our  Faculty  of  Education,  acceptance  into  the  Consecutive  Program  is  statistically  more  difficult  since  the    
program  also  considers  applications  from  outside  the  York  community.        
 
If  your  intended  course  of  study  is  the  Intermediate/Senior  stream,  you  must  complete  18  credits  in  a  secondary  
teaching  subject.      Please  refer  to  the  “York  University  Undergraduate  Calendar  2012-­‐2013",  for  a  list  of  second
