Faculty Mission

We develop individual musicians in an environment that guides, provides opportunities for excellence, and values each student and their experiences. We model excellence in the creation, performance, scholarship, and pedagogy of our art. We cultivate creative thinking and reflection, and promote the humanistic value and benefits of life-long music-making in all students, regardless of major.
