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; and
4. To guide and encourage young musicians in seeking ways to live
a Christ-centered life and be a Christian role-model within the
music profession.
ACU music graduates combine their love of music with a variety of
careers including music sales, instrument repair, school administration,
worship ministry, musical theater and performance. They are teaching
in their own private studios, composing scores for film, managing
retail music stores, tuning and repairing pianos, testing musical
