Students with BAs then went on to earn master degrees in specific subjects either for professional training or as academic preparation for entry into doctoral studies. One of my undergrad roommates was in a degree program prepping him to become an architect. Most of the courses were focused, one way or another, on preparing him for the career. The argument pro BA degrees is that there is a wealth of knowledge about the world, mankind, etc. A BA music major still has considerable specific music training!
Orange County, CA. At my school, they used to treat the BA students and BM students differently. BA students didn't get the professors as their teachers, unless they are really talented. BA students are usually the double-majors. I sometimes wonder if Beethoven, Bach, Mozart or insert your favorite composer here were alive today, would they need a degree to get the respect they deserve?

At least in the UK, it's difficult to generalise about this question.
Not all colleges that offer BMus are focusing on 'training' performers, but some are. If a comparison were necessary, you'd have to compare specific course offerings from specific institutions. A generalization like "BA students are usually the double-majors" would be wrong in a lot of cases. I assume that elsewhere in the world the situation isn't very different.
There were minor distinctions between the two, but the list of course work seemed to be the same. Regardless, whether it is BA or BM, you would probably have equal opportunity to find job, or progress on to a Masters degree. In my humble opinion, ultimately, what counts is your grades, and academic and performance excellency. Ooh, and not to forget, to be able to "market yourself" well in your job interviews. Good luck!

It may make for a long day, but can be a great option. Required music courses tend not to fall in this time period, but other academics will. At Rice, for instance, you cannot enter as a BA in music. You must enter in the BM track and can only do a BA if you "drop down" to it after one year. The two schools where it appeared that there may really be both B. Does anybody have any thoughts about what a B. When we visited Emory, it was emphasized to us over and over how easy it was to double major some teachers told us it was TOO easy , and some students even triple.
Emory is on our list to consider. One thing we noticed there is that all music majors must audition in order to declare, even if they are interested in composition, theory, etc. I have noticed some differences among schools in how much emphasis there is on performing skills for B. At some schools, composers are required to have a primary instrument, although the standard may be somewhat lower for a composition student - enough to demonstrate musical knowledge rather than mastery.
At other schools, "auditioning" is by way of portfolio. It is just hearsay never visited, so nothing first hand , but I think, from what we have heard, that the level of musicianship is not very high. All Rights Reserved.
