Department of Music

The Department of music serves Evangel by providing technical instruction in the training of professional teachers, performers, and church musicians.  It serves the entire student body by encouraging musical enrichment and individual appreciation of music.  The Department fulfills these objectives through the well-established musical curriculum, a highly trained musical faculty, and many varied performance opportunities.  

Students wishing to earn the professional Bachelor of Music degree may select one of two areas of emphasis:  Music Education or Performance.  The Bachelor of Science in Music is available with either an emphasis on Recording Technology or Worship Leadership. To serve students desiring a liberal arts (non-vocational) degree, the University offers the Bachelor of Arts in Music and Music Theatre.

All Evangel music programs are accredited with the National Association of Schools of Music (NASM).  

Performance Opportunities. All music majors have co-curricular requirements, including recital and concert attendance and specific ensemble participation. In addition, all B.M. majors must satisfy piano proficiency requirements and perform a senior recital. These additional requirements are detailed in the Music Handbook.
