Department of Music

The mission of the Department of Music at Wake Forest University is to cultivate a music community dedicated to the pursuit of musical excellence through the highest quality teaching, research, and performance within the context of an inclusive, liberal arts environment. We aim to educate and inspire the whole artist and scholar in the spirit of Pro Humanitate, preparing students as advocates for the arts in their communities and on the world stage.
