專業(yè)概況
在這里學什么?
The BCCM offers two master’s degree tracks in composition. Students in both tracks benefit from opportunities to work closely with the individual composition faculty, and from frequent opportunities for feedback from the composition faculty and from their fellow students—both advanced undergraduates and fellow graduate students. There are also many opportunities to participate in adventurous and unusual new music performances: in recent years, the department has hosted several Happenings, a full performance, day and night, of Erik Satie’s Vexations (with an expanded instrumentation including analog synthesizers, antiphonal sax choir, toy piano and tuba, multiple melodicas, electric guitar and bass, and more), performances of several different 60x60 mixes, thereby experiencing new one-minute works by literally hundreds of different living composers on campus, and many more. Through the Laptop Ensemble and the New Music Ensemble, the department has also seen several collaborations with video artists, and dozens of world premieres by composers in the department and others from afar, including the New Music Ensemble’s premiering Christian Wolff’s Robert and Pauline Oliveros’s Sound Listening, both works that the ensemble commissioned and prepared under each composer’s supervision.
Students go on from our master’s degree programs in composition to work in the film industry and in higher education, to found their own ensembles and concert series, and many other composition-related pursuits. Many of our students have also gone on to doctoral study in composition at excellent programs on the West Coast, throughout the U.S., and abroad.
Master of Music Degree in Composition with Interactive Media
This degree track welcomes applications from composers who are working with live technologies (and perhaps mostly—or even exclusively--creating new works that exist without a traditional score), and we also welcome applicants who don’t necessarily define themselves as composers at all, but as sound artists and other creators working with sound in various ways in conjunction with other media. Students working in the Composition with Interactive Media track realize new works in conjunction with their work with the BCCM Laptop Ensemble and often collaborate with colleagues in other departments and programs on campus, including art, computer science, dance, design, and film & electronic arts.

? contemporary musical styles and techniques. ? aesthetics of contemporary music. ? notational practices in music. ? use of technology as a compositional tool. ? approaches to teaching theory/composition. ? research and writing in the discipline.
