BILLYE BROWN YOUMANS, Applied Music,Voice (adjunct)Music is a unique expressive language, a special way ofknowing as essential to basic education as the mastery ofverbal and numerical skills. The study of this languageprovides individuals with personal fulfillment, enhancesand complements everyday life, and creates a windowthrough which the viewer can discover and experienceaesthetic beauty. The music department at VirginiaWesleyan provides a program of study that educates itslearners in a way that enables them to appreciate as well ascritically articulate their responses to this important part ofour culture. Virginia Wesleyan offers majors in appliedmusic and music in the liberal arts. The department alsooffers courses for the non-musician, the Virginia WesleyanCollege Concert Series, and a non-credit certificateprogram through the Center for Sacred Music, whichincludes an annual summer conference. The curriculumcan help prepare students for careers in private teaching,public school teaching, church music, music merchandising,arts management, music librarianship, or graduatestudies in music or humanities.
