Music - Reed College

Music from Reed College is a Campus Bachelor Music degree that prepares you for a Vocational Programs career. To encourage and develop the interests of the many Reed students who are interested in music , the music department offers courses in music history, theory, and performance, many without prerequisites. Majors and nonmajors alike are welcome to take classes in all areas of music history, theory, and performance. Prospective majors should begin their course of study with Theory II (Music 211) and Introduction to Music History (Music 221 and 222) in the first two years. Those who do not place into Theory II in the examination given at the beginning of each year should register first for Theory I (Music 111). We recommend that majors take piano lessons if they have never done so. Majors are expected to participate in performance activities; therefore, fees for private instruction in one instrument or voice are waived for junior and senior music majors. Music majors must complete Theory II, two semesters of Introduction to Music History, and at least one other course at the 200 or 300 level in order to make formal application for junior status; still another course at the 200 or 300 level must be completed before the junior qualifying examination. The department strongly recommends that one of these courses be Theory III (Music 312). The junior seminar (intended principally for majors) is required. View more details on Reed College .
