Overview:	Students further develop compositional skills and personal voice through a deep engangement with the discipline. Compositional projects will range from writing a duo to an orchestral work, and culminate in a concert presentation of student works. A Professional Project elective allows for the procurement and/or curation of work in a concert or public context outside of the University, building engagement with the profession.
