Overview

Key features

Students in this Musicology with Performance program at University of Victoria, British Columbia often structure their musicological research around their performance instrument or repertoire, although we encourage any and all levels of participation with any type of musical genre.

Students interested in Musicology with Performance are required to submit the same materials as above; they must also arrange for an audition with a specific performance instructor as described under the admission process for the MMus in Performance. If a student has an interest in an alternative path (such as lessons or performance activities in jazz, conducting, popular music, or electronic music), we recommend they contact the head of musicology directly.
