NYU's Graduate Program in Music caters to career-focused students aiming to blend academic teaching with ongoing research or composition. The program offers three specialized tracks: Ethnomusicology, Historical Musicology, and Composition and Theory, while encouraging exploration beyond these traditional boundaries. Students engage with diverse musical areas including jazz, pop, film scores, global music traditions, classical repertoire, and musical theater. Alumni have secured faculty positions at top-tier North American institutions and are recognized internationally for their scholarly and creative achievements.
With intentionally limited enrollment of six to eight students annually, this research-intensive program emphasizes pushing the frontiers of musical knowledge through its curriculum.
