Music

Professor: Evans, Koehler, Pixley, Tung (Chair), Turner

The music department seeks to cultivate an understanding of the language and history of music and to nurture artistic skill and musicianship. Music performance is at the center of the curriculum, and all performance opportunities, both solor and ensemble, are available for majors and non-majors alike. Academic courses in music theory, music history, and practical musicianship combine with applied music to provide an integrated approach to the discipline.

The major or minor in music intensifies this integrate approach to create highly creative, analytical thinkers with a great amount of self-discipline, independent organizational skills, and confidence in stage presence. They are welcomed by graduate schools and employers alike.
