The History, Theory, and Composition specialization explores the intellectual traditions shaping European and American music across centuries. The theoretical aspect establishes fundamental knowledge, examining core musical elements like harmony, counterpoint, and form while developing ear training and keyboard proficiency. The historical curriculum follows Western music's evolution through medieval, Renaissance, classical, romantic, and modern periods. Advanced seminars cover 18th-20th century repertoire alongside courses analyzing musical structures and their historical contexts.
