Mission
The Department of Music fosters preeminent research, creative endeavors, and learning. We support students in developing their musical skills and knowledge within the context of a liberal arts education and prepare them to become proactive scholar-practitioners in music education. Through the Joint Music Program, we promote the academic education of students from the Cleveland Institute of Music. We provide local, regional, national, and international leadership in the fields of musicology, historical performance practice, and music education, while preparing the next generation of leaders in these disciplines. We are committed to cultivating excellence in musical performance across diverse genres and traditions. We encourage service to the institution and the broader academic community, active participation in faculty governance, and the promotion of open communication and shared policy-making.
