音乐系
Love what you do—share what you love
On any given day, at almost any time, the Melvin K. West Fine Arts Center is filled with the sounds and sights of students studying music: ensembles rehearsing, 私人课程, classes being taught—classes small enough to feel like seminars—and students studying together. Collective striving for excellence and warm community spirit are everywhere in evidence.
Whether preparing for a career or pursuing curiosity in music, Walla Walla University’s Adventist music program strives to heighten aesthetic sensitivity, illuminate music’s power to express the human experience in a uniquely abstract way, and enhance campus life and that of the larger community.
