Minneapolis is also the home of the Minnesota Orchestra for classical music lovers, as well as many great venues for Jazz and other popular music artists. Recording students are blessed with many fine musicians of all types to record, musicians have music business students to network with, musicians have students eager to record their music, film scoring students have producers, songwriters and musicians to work with, and on and on. We have a unique community. Small, very high quality, intense, supportive, challenging, affirming, high expectations, personal training. We also are the only school to my knowledge that has a world class commercial recording studio on campus that has dozens of gold and platinum records recorded by the producers and engineers there.
Students get a chance to experience the real thing in their fourth semester.
And the faculty would be hard to find elsewhere - they are highly qualified in their field, they love the kids, they love being at Music Tech. JM - A program takes about three years to mature to the point where the bugs have been worked of the curriculum. We have a superb staff that is empowered to develop, test and perfect each class and course. We add courses when we have the staff in place to develop and nurture the program over time and allow it to deepen and grow. We are blessed with a fertile arts community here from which we can draw a highly qualified and motivated faculty.
