Contemporary Classical Vocal Perfomance?

Does anyone know of schools with a master's degree in contemporary (classical, not pop/rock/jazz) vocal performance besides UCLA and Manhattan?

Dawn Upshaw runs a wonderful program at Bard. Although the singers do learn standard rep - they also perform a lot of New Music. Bard College Conservatory of Music | Graduate Vocal Arts Program | Overview

"This two-year master of music degree balances a respect for established repertory and expressive techniques with the flexibility and curiosity needed to keep abreast of evolving musical ideas."

I second the idea of Cal Arts. You might also contact Mills and find out what opportunities & instruction are there for vocal performance. Mills College :: Music :: MFA in Performance & Lit

Have you looked into NYU?
