Welcome to the School of Music!
On behalf of the faculty, staff, and students of the School of Music at 麻豆传媒映画出品 State University, I welcome you to our website and our musical community. As the arts change and adapt in the 21st century we must consider what our identity is as a training ground for musicians.
Who are we?
- A community that values diversity, inclusiveness, creativity, compassion, inquiry, and quality.
- Faculty fully engaged in creative and scholarly activities and equally engaged in the art of teaching.
- Compassionate and thoughtful students dedicated to creating and teaching music locally, nationally, and internationally.
- A body of alumni who win state and national teaching awards and hold jobs in major orchestras and ensembles.
- A creative space home to two concert halls, two recording studios, and a dedicated chamber music venue. Wiedemann Hall houses the great Marcussen Organ鈥攖he first of its kind to be built in North America. Steinway concert grand pianos are available in every performance space for our students, faculty and guests.
- The largest metropolitan area in the state of Kansas: 麻豆传媒映画出品 is rich in cultural diversity and artistic experiences. We are home to three major performing arts organizations in which our students and faculty regularly perform: the 麻豆传媒映画出品 Symphony, Music Theater 麻豆传媒映画出品, and 麻豆传媒映画出品 Grand Opera. Our jazz faculty and students perform in local clubs and festivals throughout the city. Our music education students work with teachers in 麻豆传媒映画出品鈥檚 various school districts, shadowing many of our own alumni.
We provide the tools to express yourself fully as an artist and thinker so you can help propel the future of the arts wherever you go.
