  • Demonstrate stylistic distinctions in advanced-solo and advanced-ensemble baritone repertoire to accurately interpret music in performance.
  • Demonstrate an advanced-level understanding of the baritone to continue to improve as a performer.

  • Meet learning outcomes specific to this project as mutually agreed upon by the student and instructor in advance through a written learning contract, and as appropriate to the credit awarded for this course.
