Music Studio (Instrumental and Vocal Music Programs)
Benjamin Schott, Assistant Principal
The Music Department prepares students to continue their studies in music conservatories, to major in music at a university, or to perform professionally. All music majors receive preparation in sight singing, music theory, and music history. Master classes feature guest artists such as members of the New York Philharmonic, the Metropolitan Opera and The Juilliard School.
Any student who has had previous training in sight-singing, ear-training and/or theory is advised to take a diagnostic exam in order to be placed into an appropriate level.
