Research a diverse range of music around the world to create a new world of music.

The World Music Program is a program of study based on a new concept that is different from pre-existing programs. Specialized practical skills lessons have been established (*1) with a diverse range of musical instruments that exceed 20 types in number, based on the interpretation of the “music around the world”. Furthermore, this is a flexible program of study that allows students to learn according to their orientation, by combining two of the special practical skills lessons provided with all programs at the University (*2). Available elective courses for specialization are substantial and versatile. Composite learning that spans across genres nurture keen sensitivity and broad adaptability to nurture students into performers with rich expressive abilities.
