Welcome!
Welcome to the news page of the Case Western Reserve University Department of Music. We have several interesting and exciting stories for you to explore using the links at right, including a return to Severance Hall for our ensemble Gala in April, and the awards and accomplishments of some of our outstanding faculty and students. Also, be sure to check out the reminiscences of Mary Davis, Gary Ciepluch, and myself, as we recall our 10, 20, and 30 years, respectively, teaching music at Case.
Case music programs offer the unique opportunity for an intensive liberal arts education within a first-class research institution, and a fine conservatory training in the context of the Joint Program with the Cleveland Institute of Music. We offer BA programs in performance, music history, audio recording, theory, early music performance practices, and general musicianship, as well as a BS in music education. On the graduate level, we offer specialties in the fields of musicology, music education, and early music performance practices, with MA, DMA, and Ph.D. degree programs available. And each semester, hundreds of students participate in our bands, orchestras, jazz ensembles, chamber ensembles, and early music groups. For information on our degree programs and ensembles, please use the links at left, and if you need more information or have news to share, please do not hesitate to be in touch.
