I'd like to welcome your exploration of the transformative Frost School of Music. This is a dynamic place, where brilliant students and faculty mentors come together to change the world of music. In this website, you will discover that our offerings are the most diverse in the nation, all with a stunning degree of excellence. More importantly for you, we break down the walls between the disciplines, so that you can experience and learn in the full array of our school. The world you will enter upon graduation is far different from that of fifty years ago, ten years ago, or even today. You come to the Frost School to be prepared for tomorrow.
At the core of a great music school are brilliant performance, creativity,
and scholarship. These attributes are embodied by the faculty of Frost,
which is renowned worldwide. The result of their work is reflected
in the acclaimed careers of so many of our alumni, whose accomplishments
have changed the landscape in classical, jazz, pop music, opera, and
musical theatre. In fact one of our distinguished alums, Bruce Hornsby,
has endowed a new curriculum in the school, The Bruce Hornsby Creative
American Music Program.
It is important for a music school to elevate the art itself. Graduates of our programs in Music Business and Entertainment Industries and Music Engineering Technology are doing just that, because they are working in leadership positions throughout the music business community. Here at Frost, Cane Records and CAT5 Music Publishing are successful business ventures managed by the students of the school. They leave here already as veterans of the industry.
Our Music Education and Music Therapy students are also excellent performers, contributing to the vibrancy of the Frost experience. Upon graduation, they become the finest teachers and practitioners in the field, because brilliant musicianship is at their core.
I am very proud to lead this amazing Frost School, which is a diverse and rich culture. You will never find another music school with so much to offer, housed in a dynamic university environment. Once seated in the Frost School, you will have a ticket to your tomorrow.
The faculty and I hope to get to know you and be able to contribute to your aspirations.
Warmly,
Shelton ("Shelly") Berg
Dean
Patricia L. Frost Professor of Music
