All art is a form of self-expression, but music is perhaps the most universal.
Albion's Department of Music seeks to involve the entire Albion community by being an artistic presence on campus, exposing students to and involving them in the creative process of music, helping develop students' understanding of music, and providing thorough training for future professional musicians and music educators. Regardless of your academic major, you are welcome to participate in a variety of performing ensembles. If you are interested in a career in music, you will have access to private lessons, music history and theory classes, and labs conducted by our music faculty who are themselves professional musicians. And, you will have internship opportunities at places like the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., the Lyric Opera of Chicago, The Midwest Opera Company of St. Paul, and the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra.
