4. Course additions: MUS ... Foundations of Music Education MUS ... Music Theory Ill MUS ... Ear Training and Musicianship Ill
5. Course modifications: MUS103 Fundamentals of Music I\IIUS118 Vocal Workshop MUS119 Songwriting Workshop MUS131 Class Piano I MUS132 Music Theory I MUS134 Ear Training and Musicianship I MUS137 Guitar Workshop MUS231 Class Piano II MUS232 Music Theory II MUS234 Ear Training and Musicianship II MUS241 Class Piano Ill MUS242 Class Piano IV MUS250 Electronic Music Composition (Change Prerequisite)
Rationale for Program Addition and Program Deletions:
The revisions in the music curriculum package are warranted by the need to address deficiencies in our legacy music program that hinders our music students' ability to facilitate smooth transfer into fouryear college music programs. This package is the culmination of several years of effort by the Bergen music faculty in consultation with local four-year music programs as well as affiliates of the college music accreditation body, the National Association for Schools of Music (NASM). The Bergen music program is planning to join NASM, making it the first community college music program in the tri-state area to apply for this prestigious accreditation.
Currently, the AA.FPA.MUSC program option is a liberal arts curriculum and is not sufficient for students to gain the necessary skills to enroll in a four-year music degree program at junior level. The curriculum proposal eliminates the liberal arts focus from our program as well as the two existing AFA
programs and consolidates these into one Associate of Fine Arts program in Music with three program concentrations: Music Performance (Jazz/Classical emphasis), Popular Music and Music Production. This consolidation will provide our students with the necessary skills to audition and begin advanced music study in accredited four-year college music programs. This degree and program concentrations will expand and enhance the articulation agreements we already have with the music programs at William Paterson University, Ramapo College, Mercy College and New York University as well as offer a strong foundation to pursue articulation with other NASM accredited four-year music programs.
No additional resources are needed.
Course Modifications:
In order to be in compliance with the requirements of NASM accreditation, it is paramount that we reconfigure our credit structure to be equivalent to NASM accredited programs such as William Paterson University and Montclair State University. To that end, we are suggesting the following credit modifications:
MUS103 Fundamentals of Music- from 3 credits (3 lecture) to 3 credits (2 lecture, 2 lab) MUS118 Vocal Workshop- from 3 credits (!lecture, 2 lab) to 3 credits (21ecture, 21ab) MUS119 Songwriting Workshop- from 3 credits (!lecture, 2 lab) to 3 credits (2 lecture, 2 lab) MUS131 Class Piano I- from 2 credits (11ecture, 2 lab) to 1 credits (!lecture, 11ab) MUS132 Music Theory I- from 2 credits (!lecture, 21ab) to 3 credits (2 lecture, 2 lab) MUS134 Ear Training and Musicianship I- from 2 credits (3 lecture) to 3 credits (2 lecture, 2 lab) MUS137 Guitar Workshop- from 3 credits (3 lecture) to 3 credits (2 lecture, 21ab) MUS231 Class Piano II- from 2 credits (11ecture, 21ab) to 1 credits (11ecture, llab) MUS232 Music Theory II- from 2 credits (!lecture, 2 lab) to 3 credits (2 lecture, 2 lab) MUS234 Ear Training and Musicianship II- from 2 credits (11ecture, 2 lab) to 1 credits (11ecture, 1lab) MUS241 Class Piano Ill- from 2 credits (11ecture, 21ab) to 1 credits (11ecture, 11ab) MUS242 Class Piano IV- from 2 credits (11ecture, 2 lab) to 1 credits (11ecture, 11ab)
No additional resources are needed.
Program: Music Degree: Associate in Fine Arts Code: AFA.MUSC
The Associate of Fine Arts (AFA) in Music concentrates student learning on music skills and knowledge, preparing students for further academic study of Music in a variety of music applications such as music production, music business, music education, music performance and composition, and music therapy, at the junior and senior college levels. Through applied and theoretical courses, students will develop the basic competencies of musicianship, knowledge acquisition, critical thinking, and analytic writing skills that potentially encompass a wide range of degree possibilities. The music course variety potentially includes performance, composition, critical listening, and theoretical skill sets necessary for a pathway towards a bachelor's degree in music.
Program Learning Outcomes: 1. Demonstrate the ability to hear, identify and engage with the elements of music (melody, harmony, rhythm, form, texture, timbre, etc.) in both sound and musical notation. 2. Demonstrate the ability to think critically, analyze and communicate about the historical, cultural and sociological importance of music in a wide variety of styles and genres. 3. Demonstrate proficiency and creativity in musical performance and music composition. 4. Exhibit knowledge of how the music industry shapes the music we consume and create. 5. Demonstrate facility with music technology and its applications.
