NEW: DMA in Performance - Piano Pedagogy

The new Doctor of Musical Arts in Performance - Piano Pedagogy (DMA) degree at UNT is a modern, rigorous, and comprehensive program designed for pianists who aspire to excel both as performers and educators at the advanced level. We believe in a degree that merges the artistry of performance with the pedagogical expertise necessary to cultivate the next generation of pianists/pedagogues.
 
Students in this program study performance with an applied piano faculty member (Ludmila Georgievskaya, Pamela Mia Paul, Vladimir Viardo, Adam Wodnicki) while also receiving intensive training in advanced piano pedagogy with the piano pedagogy faculty (Bradley Beckman, Oscar Macchioni). The program is ideal for strong performers who are intentional about teaching excellence and whose goals include teaching in higher education.
 

Join the Journey

Graduate Artist Certificate in piano
Candidates for the Graduate Artist Certificate in piano are artists of outstanding artistic and virtuosic talent who seek to spend two years preparing for and entering major national and international piano competitions. They should submit a resume/CV that includes evidence of participation and/or prizes won in national or international competition, as well as solo recitals and appearances with orchestra. Postdoctoral candidates are discouraged from applying unless they are still eligible for major international competitions or can provide documentation proving that they have significant concert engagements for the next two seasons.
