A Study on the Music Curriculum of Musical Major Student

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to establish a systematic music education curriculum that can cultivate professional musical actors through research on essential subjects necessary for effective music education for musical students. Therefore, in this thesis, research was conducted focusing on music, acting, dance, and music-related subjects, which are the most basic in fostering musical majors. For the study, the entire department of musical majors in domestic universities was investigated, and among them, six domestic universities that include four essential music subjects (music theory, vocals, repertoire analysis, audition), which are the minimum curriculum for musical music education, were selected and curricula for each department were compared and analyzed. In order to find a more desirable direction for the development of Korean musical major music curriculum, the AMDA Performing Arts College's musical major curriculum was investigated to see if the current subjects were progressing correctly and what subjects should be improved in the future. As a result, five differences were found that were different from the musical major curriculum of Korean universities. Based on this,15 music curriculums were proposed for Korean musical major students. Based on this study, if each university's musical major and music curriculum consists of a systematic and diverse curriculum, it is expected that the university's major education will be of great help in achieving the desired educational purpose to cultivate professional musical actors.
