Welcome to the Department of Music at Webster University. Over and over we hear When I think of Webster, I think of the arts.  We are Saint Louis' arts university!  The Department of Music is proudly and widely known for distinctive programs that combine outstanding academic and performance experiences within a broad, challenging educational environment.  We take seriously our part in living out the university's mission: transform students for global citizenship and individual excellence.  You'll find transforming challenges in our classes, lessons, and ensembles.  You'll find your world view expanded and enhanced through study abroad, guest artists, and master classes.  Nurturing, friendly, real . . . these are words that describe Webster.


The Department has been a full member of the National Association of Schools of Music (NASM) for the last half-century, an important marker of our standing among music departments in the US..  Other institutional memberships include the American Choral Directors Association, Music Teachers National Association, Opera America, the Missouri and Illinois state music teachers associations, and League of American Orchestras.

With a talented musical faculty comprised of outstanding professional practitioners, we invite you to enter the world of music at Webster University!
