We are dedicated to creating an environment of educational and artistic excellence in our faculty and students by cultivating creativity, academic discovery, and a wide range of diverse cultures. As a comprehensive School of Music established within one of the world’s finest public research universities, our School is deeply engaged in the creation, practice, scholarship, and pedagogy of music.
We value innovation, which requires space for exploration, experimentation, and the development of an inventive spirit. We challenge our students and faculty to approach their art and disciplines with new ideas and in new alignments: from recreating Baroque styles to generating new notations and techniques. In advancing the creativity of music, we support the disruption of received wisdom and accept the risk of failure, knowing that originality can arise from these exhilarating leaps.
Our goal is to make the expression and discovery of music inclusive to all who wish to participate in it and to absorb it, hoping the power of the performing arts will reach many populations and communities. To this end, we strive to include as many perspectives as possible, creating a varied web from the many individual visions that comprise musical expression.
