Applied music study for the music ministry minor may be in voice piano, organ, guitar, brass, woodwinds, strings, or percussion. Either the principal or the secondary applied area for all music minors must be piano.

Each semester of their applied study, music minors take a jury in their principal applied area. Note the following exemptions from juries:

  • Non-seniors presenting an acceptable solo recital of at least 15 minutes in length after mid-term are exempt from performing a jury that semester.
  • Seniors who student teach during the semester.
  • Seniors who present a senior recital after mid-term.
  • Music ministry minors with a principal area in percussion, brass, or woodwinds must satisfy their ensemble requirements with Jazz Ensemble (if instrumentation appropriate) and/or Johnson City Community Concert Band (Civic Band). For all voice minors, participation in Concert Choir or Milligan Women's Chorale fulfills the ensemble requirement. For string minors, participation in Orchestra fulfills the ensemble requirement. Ensemble requirements for students whose principal applied area is guitar will be determined on an individual basis by the applied instructor and ensemble directors. Participation in choral or instrumental ensembles fulfills the ensemble requirement for all students whose principal applied area is keyboard.

    Concert and recital attendance is required of all music minors for four semesters (attending four concerts per semester). Failure to meet all recital attendance requirements results in a half a letter grade (5 points) reduction in every music class final average for the semester.
