About

Today’s musicians must be prepared for a changing society. The Townsend School of Music fosters excellence in musical learning within the context of a comprehensive university environment. Innovative courses in music business and new media assist in the extra-musical preparation, and the School is nationally recognized for its outstanding faculty, award-winning students, performance ensembles, and state-of-the-art facilities. 

Townsend graduates are singers at the Metropolitan Opera, conductors in collegiate programs, organists in leading churches, teachers in secondary schools, and collaborative pianists, instrumentalists, and singers in some of the country’s most prestigious graduate schools.

Help us increase support for much needed student scholarship and academic resources by making a gift to the Townsend School of Music Annual Fund during Orange & Black Give Back. Your support makes a difference in the lives of our students!
