Ringkasan program

This program provides advanced study in world music for individuals seeking national or international careers in cross-cultural environments. In each course students will learn the general principles of ethnomusicology gain an understanding of the role of an ethnomusicologist and have the opportunity to develop an area of specialization. The curriculum for the MA in Ethnomusicology provides worship leader/musicians, missionaries, and church leaders the understanding of ethnic music culture that facilitates the use of indigenous music in worship, discipleship and evangelism. Essentially, this graduate degree is preparing worship leader/musicians as missionaries. Additionally, as missiologists continue to provide evidence that people must worship in their own heart language, this degree intentionally and strategically sets in motion partnerships between potential worship leaders/musicians and practicing missionaries. The MA in Ethnomusicology is a 42-hour degree where all but four summer resident classes are available through Liberty University Online. This dynamic partnership between the missionary and worship leader/musician may be developed and nurtured in a unique way with both being trained in the same classes. Students in this program come from backgrounds as church musicians, professional performers, and music educators. The career opportunities include worldwide service in inter-cultural ministry, music education, and music performance.
