Undergraduate Course

Composer’s Forum

Students attend weekly presentations from composers, and concerts. Composer guests introduce students to their aesthetic world by discussing, analyzing, and playing recordings of some of their most relevant works. Students have the opportunity to network with a diverse range of visiting composers, which helps them create contacts for their professional development. Some of the classes
include attending concerts in which works from living composers are featured, including NYU students and faculty.
