Music

The Elms College music curriculum guides you to a deeper understanding and appreciation of music in its aesthetic, cultural, and social contexts. Courses develop proficiency in voice and instrument, and theoretical and historical perspectives.

We offer a minor in music consisting of 18 credits. Any three-credit music course — lecture or instrumental groups, concert choir, or applied piano — may be chosen to fulfill part of your core curriculum requirements.
