Choral Conducting
The Doctor of Musical Arts (DMA) degree in Choral Conducting is designed to provide students with advanced study in choral conducting and research to prepare choral directors for conducting and teaching careers in university settings. The curriculum offers rigorous training that includes private conducting lessons, languages and diction, voice study, musicianship, score reading and preparation, performance practice and an array of academic studies. Students work closely with the Hartt choral ensembles and have required choral performances as part of the curriculum.
