Departmental Piano Recitals are scheduled on Thursdays beginning at 4:00 PM. Recitals have resumed in-person in the Recital Hall unless otherwise noted (see schedule for Voertman Hall dates). Masks and sitting two seats apart are strongly encouraged.

Attendance at weekly departmental recitals is mandatory for all MUAM and MUAC students. Students who have a regular conflict at this hour may be excused with prior approval from Dr. Pamela Mia Paul. Students are encouraged to reference the Departmental Recital Attendance Policy in the Piano Handbook for a list of excusable absences.  Attendance credit will be withheld if a student is found using any electronic device during a performance.

The length of a departmental at which attendance is required is up to 50 minutes. Should the recital go past 4:50, anyone who remains for the entire runover can receive extra credit.

Performance majors are encouraged 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 Thursday at 5:00 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.
