The expression of ideas and emotions through music is integral to every culture. To understand music is to understand the essence of humanity.
Music extends one's comprehension of history and society while also preparing students for a career.
The broadly educated musician is in demand in education, the recording industry, theatre, film, television, and radio. Performance opportunities include the University chorale, the University Chamber Orchestra, the University Wind Ensemble, Brass Ensemble, flute Orchestra, the Chamber ensembles, and the Madrigal Singers as well as private study in keyboard, voice, woodwind, brass, string, and percussion instruments.
