Departmental class is part of the applied piano curriculum for Piano Performance and Piano Concentration students. The Departmental Recitals are scheduled on Thursdays from 4:00 - 6:00 PM. Recitals are held in the Recital Hall unless otherwise noted (see schedule for Voertman Hall dates).

Attendance at weekly departmental recitals is mandatory for all piano students enrolled in MUAM and MUAC courses. Performance majors are required to remain for the entire departmental class which may last up to two hours. Piano Concentration students may leave (quietly and during applause) after one hour. Only two unexcused absences are allowed; any additional unexcused absence will result in lowering the final grade by 0.5%.  Students must swipe their ID card upon entering and exiting the hall to receive attendance credit. Students who have a regular conflict at this hour may be excused with prior approval from Dr. Liudmila Georgievskaya.

Performance majors are expected to perform at least once per semester. Students intending to perform (with the approval of their instructor) must complete the official submission form below providing all necessary information required for preparation of the official College of Music program. The deadline for submission is Friday at noon the week before the departmental. Incomplete or incorrect submissions will be turned back. Performance order on departmentals will be in the order in which the requests were received. Dates with limited schedule constraints will be approved based on special schedule requests or a first come, first serve basis.
