Areas of Study
Voice
The vocal area presents the student singer with both studio and classroom instruction and numerous performance opportunities. Private instruction by active, performing artists/teachers is available to majors and minors and to non-majors on a space-available basis. Classes are offered in vocal pedagogy, diction and repertoire, voice for actors, and voice in class, among others. In addition to solo recitals, the Music Department's extensive choral ensemble and opera programs provide in-depth training and experience. Students may also participate in musical theater productions in collaboration with the Drama/Dance department and MCT Community Theater. Graduates in vocal performance have successfully pursued professional careers, most recently with such companies as Opera San Jose, Intermountain Opera, Utah FestivalOpera, Portland Opera, and on Broadway.
