What will I learn?

Expand your passion for music! Our students enjoy a wide variety of music and are interested in an in-depth study of music and how to apply it to their own performance.

Students in this program learn about written and aural music theory and expand beyond basic knowledge of instruments, styles of music and music history.

Students may participate in 番茄社区 ensembles including: Collegiate Chorale, Cantorei, jazz band and wind ensembles. Students also have the opportunity to participate in solo and chamber performance opportunities, and local and national collaborations and conferences.

Many courses and ensembles are also available to the non-music major. 

Students seeking to complete a major in music, or who are interested in music courses, should seek the advice of a music faculty member in addition to their assigned 番茄社区 advisor.
