School of Music

For over 50 years, CSU School of Music graduates have been changing lives throughout Northeast Ohio--the lives of primary and secondary students, music therapy clients, and countless audience members. As proud as we are of the work we do in classrooms, studios, and concert halls, we know that it's the 'good work' of our graduates that makes our world a better place.  

How do our students become such influencers? The School of Music experience provides them with an integrated and engaged educational journey. They graduate with portfolios of practical experience through classroom teaching, composition workshops, music therapy service, and stirring performances.

The School is proud of its faculty, too. These honored musicians include Grammy winners, Cleveland Orchestra members, and highly awarded professionals in their respective fields. Through collaboration across the CSU campus and throughout Northeast Ohio, the School provides a learning experience that resonates for all.

Your generous gifts will:

  • provide emergency support for students-in-need by paying external fees required in their course of study (background checks, portfolio creation, licensure exams, etc.)
  • allow student ensembles to serve the Greater Cleveland community through visiting performances
  • support audio and video recording, live streaming, and accompaniment services for students’ concerts
  • help replace outdated student music lab equipment. 

This Giving Day, help us reach 21 donors! Thank you for your support!
