Should you decide to attend Georgetown, you'll be getting a letter over the summer inviting you to the Performing Arts Open House where you can meet all of the student leaders and professional staff. The Open House is usually the day before classes begin.
Music at Georgetown University
Georgetown has a very active performing arts program, and the music program has just begun a period of rapid expansion. The new music curriculum, staff and ensembles are largely focused music of the Americas. While we still play and teach most of the usual suspects (Bach, Beethoven and the boys), we offer lots of jazz, popular, film and folk music, technology, performance, twentieth-century music and musical theatre.
The Music Program consists of courses and degree programs, and a wide variety of student-run and professionally-led groups and ensembles operated by the Program in Performing Arts.
Music Degrees
Georgetown University is proud to annouce a new major in American Musical Culture. This degree is designed for students interested in pursuing careers and/or graduate study in: American Studies, arts management, cultural criticism, entertainment law, media studies, music journalism or musicology. A minor in music is also offered and consists of courses in music history, criticism, theory, composition, audio technology and performance.
