Contemporary Music Program

A unique, innovative, and creative approach to music education, offering a bachelor of arts degree in Contemporary Music, with strong emphasis in Performance, Composition, Recording Arts & Technology, and World Music.

Today’s musicians
are poised to embrace the most important technological, intellectual, and social advances of the time, while still honoring important musical traditions of the past.

Today’s music, our contemporary music, comes from all over the world, uses all kinds of acoustic and electronic instruments, embraces multiple traditions, and exists simultaneously in hundreds of equally exciting styles and genres.

This world of music is the one embraced by the Contemporary Music Program—the CMP.
