Bachelor of Music

Queen's University

The Bachelor of Music is a Specialist degree. Students apply to be in one of our three streams: Classical, Contemporary Instrumental and Vocal Genres, or the Sonic Arts & Music Production Stream. As a student in the Bachelor of Music specialization program, approximately two-thirds of your courses will be in Music.All Bachelor of Music students will take common courses in Music Production, Music History and Cultures, Entrepreneurship, and Education. Students will then take other courses within their respective sub-plans. Within each sub-plan, students will take performance and creation, music history, music theory, ear training, and ensemble courses related to their areas of specialization. During their degree, students can take courses from other sub-streams and/or additional courses from the list above, or courses in entrepreneurship. We encourage students to both explore new interests and build their skill sets in their Major stream to prepare themselves for careers as professional musicians who could perform, create, teach, produce, work in libraries or museums, work in arts leadership or government, or pursue graduate studies.
