About this event

The Corcoran Music Program's Fridays @ 5 is back in Phillips B120 with everything from Jazz to Chamber, Electronic to Spoken Word, building community and representing all that we learn together! It's fun, laidback, and popular with faculty, students, alumni, and anyone who drops in! All the cool kids will be there! Check out what your peers are doing, join in, and try out what you are working on now: no pressure, just fun! Fridays @ 5 will continue for the rest of the semester, so please plan to attend and perform. Everyone is welcome! • October 16 - Professor Ning Yu, faculty accompanist • November 13 - Professor Yejin Lee, faculty accompanist • December 4 - Professor Patrick Merrill, faculty accompanist MUSIC PROGRAM INFORMATION Our students create music seven days a week both individually and through ensembles. They perform in venues on and off campus, in D.C. and beyond. Through our curriculum, which includes courses in performance, history, computer music, theory, and culture, students get to know each other and enjoy encouraging and productive relationships with faculty members. Our Bachelor of Arts in Music degree lays a strong foundation for students interested in music-related professions or in advanced music study in graduate school. Our majors and minors are encouraged to join ensembles to develop performance experience and expand their repertoire.
