MUSIC & THEATRE Music at The Woods seamlessly integrates grand physical spaces with engaging online platforms, offering students an innovative hybrid experience. As they embark on their musical journey, our vibrant culture extends beyond physical classrooms, with the language of music fluently spoken in both the grand halls of historic buildings throughout campus including the Conservatory of Music to immersive online environments. Our dedicated faculty, practitioners in their own right, actively contribute to the music and music therapy world, ensuring expertise resonates in both physical and virtual realms.

With an innovative hybrid format, students are invited to explore an environment fostering creativity, excellence, and a lifelong love for making music. Welcome to a place where your musical journey becomes a symphony of possibilities, harmonizing the grand and the digital in perfect cadence.

Possible Career Paths:

Music therapists are like counselors in that they are generalists; they must be prepared to work in varied settings and with diverse therapeutic needs. If you feel called to use your gift of music to help with mental and physical healing, music and music therapy will open the door to that and many other career paths.

• Musician • Song writer • Music Therapist • Military Band Member

• Symphony Orchestra Member • Music Library Manager • Performer • Music Teacher

“Employers tell us our students are better prepared than students that go through larger programs because we work with the student on an individual level to be sure they have the skills they need to thrive. Right away, in their first year, our music therapy program students are placed in a hospital environment. They will also experience a special needs student environment and a hospice situation. By the time they do their internship, they will have experienced six or seven semesters of hands-on learning in real environments.”
