The combination of outstanding musicianship, keen intelligence, and curiousity about the world produces a unique creative voice.
Dean Toni-Marie Montgomery
School of Music

At Northwestern's world-renowned School of Music, we recognize and reward the role that music plays in inspiring humanity and advancing greatness. Here, our students dedicate their lives to their art, and we dedicate ourselves to the art of their lives.

As one of the first institutions in the country to offer academic degrees in music, we are distinct in our ability to offer a conservatory-quality education in a distinguished liberal arts setting. The richness of Chicago carries over into the classroom, with 19 members of our faculty bearing affiliation with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra or the Lyric Opera Orchestra.
