Our mission is to study, perform, and create music in a stimulating student-centered environment that fosters excellence, discipline and technical mastery; supports innovation and stylistic diversity; engages students through effective and current teaching pedagogies; enlivens students in real world experiences as musicians and entrepreneurs; and offers a distinctive national model…preparing students to become successful 21st century musicians.
