This major at Loyola University Chicago, while concentrating in the Roman Catholic tradition, will also prepare students for work in other Christian denominations, mainline Protestant and Orthodox, as they will study these different liturgical traditions, as well as their works of sacred music.Building upon the solid curricular foundation already established in the Music program, this new major combines the study of sacred text and song, imagery, melody and rhythm. It is inherently a portrayal of interdisciplinary drawing from both the disciplines of theology and music.Learning outcomesMusic (Sacred Music) at Loyola University Chicago encourages self-expression through music, engaging students with coursework and performance opportunities that encourage success in performance and composition in a variety of settings.
