As a vocalist majoring in performance at Berklee, you will learn the skills, concepts, and methodology required to demonstrate professional-level proficiency on your principal instrument: your voice.
You will complete a performance portfolio, including a juried senior recital, that typifies current professional performance standards. Most students also engage in extracurricular and cocurricular concert performances, and each performance major participates in ensembles and public performances in the college’s recital halls and venues such as the Berklee Performance Center. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
Applicants must have successful completion of PIVC-111 and PIVC-112; students must have a cumulative GPA or 2.7 in their performance courses (private instruction, labs/ensembles, and ear training) and they must also complete an audition/interview through the Voice Department.
