Shorter University Music Department

Shorter University Music Department Welcome to the Shorter University Music Department! For more information: http://su.shorter.edu/music-department/

Often described as the flagship of the university, the Music Department is well known throughout the Southeastern United States for its superior programs and direct one-on-one mentoring of students by professors. Shorter’s music degree programs include:

Bachelor of Music in Performance (voice, piano, and organ)
Bachelor of Music Education
Bachelor of Music in Piano Pedagogy
Bachel

or of Music in Church Music (voice, piano, or organ concentration)
Bachelor of Arts
Bachelor of Fine Arts in Musical Theatre

The Department of Music offers a conservatory-like experience within a traditional liberal arts institution—the best of both worlds. Our voice, piano, and organ students have consistently ranked at or near the top of regional and national competitions for many years. Furthermore, our music education majors are frequently sought after by prospective school systems before they reach graduation. In addition to private study, Shorter music students all participate in departmental ensembles. The Shorter Chorale is an auditioned choir and recognized as one of the best ensembles in the region. The Opera Theatre and Musical Theatre each produce two major works each academic year. The fall 2006 production of Sondheim’s Into the Woods was invited to compete at the annual America College Theater Festival, an honor they have earned the past four years. The accomplishments of our students and graduates demonstrate the success of our programs.

Meet Evan Wyatt! While many people will tell you all I do is spend time in my practice room, I actually love doing a lot of other things too! I really enjoy working with our Student Advisory Council to the Dean to support our SOFPA student body, faculty, and staff in whatever way we can. I also enjoy working as a Chorale assistant, making sure the little things that make Chorale flourish happen. In my free time, I love studying the natural sciences. Although I'm not very good at them, I find them as another amazing way God reveals his glory to us. Outside of school I enjoy working with my church choir as their pianist. But, by far my favorite activity outside of school is going to Barnes and Noble, even if I don't buy anything and just look haha.
