专业描述

A very special kind of young musician populates the School of Music at Carnegie Mellon University. The students here are intelligent, curious, ambitious and energetic, with musical talent in abundance. Each time I encounter them - in class, in rehearsal, or in the hallways – I am grateful that the future of our art is in such good hands. In fact, I can hardly wait to see how the current generation of Carnegie Mellon students will shape the future of music in new and creative ways. At its heart, the Carnegie Mellon School of Music is a conservatory of the highest order, where the best practices and traditions of music performance are transferred from brilliant studio teachers to talented and ambitious students. Our faculty is comprised of world-class performers and teachers who know first-hand how to achieve success in a changing, challenging marketplace. Enveloping the School of Music is Carnegie Mellon University, one of the world’s great educational and research institutions. This offers our music students a unique opportunity to explore extra-musical interests. Carnegie Mellon is situated in the City of Pittsburgh, a place with culture, art and music in abundance. Home to the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, Opera, Ballet, and countless other performing arts groups, its cultural landscape is the envy of many other cities. The Carnegie Mellon School of Music is a stimulating place because passionate people with remarkable skills are doing extraordinary things. If that sounds like your kind of place, drop us a line - we would love to meet you.
