Through focused study and private instruction, students working on the Associate in Arts in Music for Transfer Degree (音乐AA-T) will develop their performance skills, as well as compose and critically analyze music, with particular regard given to the stylistic nuances of tonal theory through 20th-century trends. Acquisition of computer notational skills assists students in generating scores and parts for required compositions. Students develop essential ear-training skills through the dictation of rhythmic, melodic and harmonic passages. A repertoire of exercises for improving technique will prepare students for leadership roles in chamber and larger ensembles.

To obtain the Music AA or AA-T degree, you must complete the 应用音乐课程. Applied Music students receive private lessons to prepare them for auditions and performances. Admission into the program requires a completed application and a live audition. Students accepted into the program must be a full-time music major for two years, enroll in required music courses, and fulfill all the expectations of an LAVC Applied Music student.
