Refine your piano technique and repertoire and develop teaching knowledge and abilities in Westminster’s piano pedagogy and performance program. This balanced program fosters the development of students who perform on a high level as soloists and as collaborators with other performing artists, as well as successful artist-teachers.
Our 38-credit curriculum features coursework in teaching methodologies, a weekly pedagogy lab, an intensive teaching internship and culminates with a full recital or combination lecture/performance recital.
Our graduates find success in careers performing as soloists, collaborative artists in the United States and abroad, work as church musicians or music educators. Here are a few career options that graduates may choose to explore: solo artist, college professor, private teacher, collaborative artist, church accompanist, or choral accompanist.
I emerged from Westminster Choir College as a complete musician who could work and serve in any capacity. My experience at Westminster has given me a lifetime of opportunities and accomplishments."
