Music


The Department of Music on the Douglass Campus is housed in the Marryott Music Building, Music House, Walters Hall, and the fine arts complex consisting of Rehearsal Hall, Music Annex, and the Nicholas Music Center, which has a beautiful concert hall that seats approximately 800 people. These buildings contain: classrooms; performance and teaching studios; conference and seminar rooms; small, medium, and large multipurpose rehearsal rooms; a small recital hall seating 200 people; 43 practice studios; rooms with computer workstations and electronic keyboards; as well as various other faculty offices and studios. The department has approximately 150 pianos, a fortepiano, three harpsichords, two concert organs, and a large collection of instruments. The Blanche and Irving Laurie Music Collection, housed adjacent to the department in the Mabel Smith Douglass Library, contains a major collection of books, scores, recordings, and other resources for the scholar and the performing musician. In addition, McKinney Hall is home to the university's Glee Club, while Kirkpatrick Chapel hosts chamber music offerings as well as other concerts and events. Mortensen Hall opened in the fall of 2013. This wraparound facility melds existing venues into a cohesive and vibrant performing arts hub and features Richard H. Shindell Choral Hall; a large public atrium featuring Cafe '52 coffee, sandwich, and sushi bar; and a technology studio for sound recording and engineering. It also includes the Presser Foundation Practice Studios for music, the Kevin Goetz Theater and Dance Studio, and a suite of faculty and administrative offices for the dance department.
