UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music’s BA in Composition seeks composers with strong intellectual curiosity whose goal is to communicate on a human level. The program emphasizes collaboration between composers and performers to simulate professional practice, while building core skills in theory, ear training, counterpoint, orchestration, analysis, music technology, performance, and historical study across Western canon alongside popular, jazz, rock, folk, and non‑Western traditions. Graduates are prepared for careers as practicing artists and film composers or for advanced graduate study. 来源： http://schoolofmusic.ucla.edu/admissions/undergraduate/music-industry-admissions/ https://schoolofmusic.ucla.edu/admissions/graduate/composition/
