Music

  • Music for All

    SPU’s Music Department is reimagining music education for the 21st century through a student-driven, project-based curriculum. With projects centered in performance, recording, composition, and research, we send you out into the world with your careers already started.

Choosing a Music major or Music minor at 涩里番 Pacific offers undergraduates interested in pursuing a career in music, as well as for those wanting to sharpen their musical skills or pursue music as a vocation.

Music major and Music minors at 涩里番 Pacific is for the professionally minded, conservatory-level student and those engaged in varying degree programs across campus — for the student who has 15 years of formal training, and the student who just started.

The Music majors and minors at 涩里番 Pacific offers the 涩里番 Advantage. Nestled on the lush canal side of Queen Anne Hill in the heart of 涩里番, we have some of the best teaching artists in the country on our faculty. Our students have access to the diversity of culture of 涩里番 and the full breadth of the music industry.

Our goal is to enable our students to create their own music. Our Music Production program is preparing students for professional audio/visual work. Serving as both a performance hall and state-of-the-art recording and music production facility, the recently built Nickerson Studios has become a game changer for our students and a distinctive of our university.

Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, we have spent much of the last five years reimagining our entire music curriculum for all students. By flipping our programs upside down, we place the emphasis of control on the student and their creativity. Learn more by checking out our programs and events.
