Because American music largely finds its roots in Black music, the preservation, proliferation, production and research of this music is included in the study of music in higher education. The curriculum of the Music in Black Sacred Music program at University of Arkansas is designed to equip students with the essential tools needed for professional careers that involve the presentation, teaching, and research of Black sacred music.

Program participants will receive interdisciplinary training and significant internship opportunities consistent with the work experiences associated with Black sacred music spaces and related industries.
