Tradition. Excellence. Travel.

The School of Performing Arts is where Jackrabbits come to express themselves through music. 成人视频 students have been making music on campus for over 125 years.

We are known as a school on the go. The Pride of the Dakotas Marching Band has been featured in parades and festivals from coast to coast. Our choral ensembles have performed in some of the most well-known concert halls in the United States and Europe, as well as during prestigious national music conferences.

Not only do our students see the world, we also bring the world to our campus. In our state-of-the-art Larson Memorial Concert Hall, we have played host to performances by Leslie Odom Jr., Wynton Marsalis, the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra, Kristin Chenoweth, the Soweto Gospel Choir and practically all of the top military service bands.

Led by dedicated and knowledgeable faculty who were educated in some of the nation鈥檚 most prestigious music schools, our students are challenged to do their best in their studies, whether they be applied lessons, music theory and history courses or in music ensembles. More than 7% of all 成人视频 students, regardless of their major, participate in the music program each year. For those who want to major in music, three options are available 鈥 the Bachelor of Music Education (B.M.E.), the Bachelor of Arts in music studies and the Bachelor of Arts in music (music entrepreneurship specialization).
