New Sacred Music Major at Franciscan University
Musica Sacra reports that Franciscan University is creating a new Sacred Music Major.
Franciscan University of Steubenville is pleased to announce the creation of a Bachelor of Arts in Sacred Music to begin in the fall of 2007. The degree may be pursued in either the program in voice or the program in organ. Pianists may audition for the program in organ on the piano. Courses will include private instruction on the major instrument, music theory, music history, conducting and a year-long course in Gregorian Chant. In addition, students will participate in the Schola Cantorum Franciscana, which concentrates on polyphony and chant and sings for occasional services on and off campus.
Interested students may apply for admission to the university at:
Franciscan University of Steubenville
Admissions
1235 University Blvd.
Steubenville, OH 43953
Students interested in auditioning may contact Prof. Paul Weber at the above address or by telephone at 740.284.5884.
This is excellent news as Franciscan Univ. (known more for their "contemporary charismatic focus" although as a former student I know that there is a large traditional group there) joins the choir so to speak of Ave Maria Univ. and Catholic Univ. of America in offering a Sacred Music program.
