Introduction
The mission of the ACU Music Department is to prepare
musicians for service and leadership throughout the world. A
dedicated and talented faculty work with students in a caring,
Christian environment. They teach and mentor in the classroom
and studio using a wealth of experience gained from their
performing, conducting, teaching, and composing careers. The
faculty assists students in becoming outstanding performers,
teachers, conductors, composers, and leaders in the music
industry who reflect God's creative force and presence in their
music and lives.
To accomplish this mission, the music department has
established four primary objectives:
1. To develop and inspire students artistically as
comprehensive musicians;
2. To prepare students to teach capably and effectively in the
school and studio;
3. To provide training and direction for students who desire
to perform professionally or who wish to utilize their
music degree in the music industry; and88
