New York University NYU Abu Dhabi 57 courses 128 total credits
The Music Program at NYU Abu Dhabi is committed to educating a new generation of musicians, capable of making and thinking about music from transnational and interdisciplinary perspectives. We seek to enrich the education and experience of all NYUAD students and foster a vibrant and diverse musical community. Non-majors may engage with the Music Program in a variety of ways - from developing musical skills through lessons, group classes, and ensembles to integrating one of our many cross-listed seminar courses into a broader program of study. In the twenty-first century, music defies boundaries. Composers and performers now consistently stretch their art beyond the strictures of traditional instruments and sounds, and sometimes even beyond the realm of sound itself into engagement with movement and interactive media. Meanwhile, music has become a topic of cutting-edge scholarly work in such diverse disciplines as computer science, disability studies, history, neuroscience, philosophy, psychology, and sociocultural anthropology.
