The Music Program of Temple College offers a wide selection of opportunities for students. Students who have majors and minors outside of music are encouraged to participate in music courses, ensembles, and applied instruction for a better perspective on the arts and improved self-expression.

A full two-year program is offered for both the music major and minor who will pursue a bachelor’s degree in music. In addition to the traditional music curriculum, the Music Department offers selected courses in commercial music.

Music scholarships are available to deserving students, regardless of major. Interested students should contact the Division of Fine Arts, located in the Mary Alice Marshall Performing Arts Center for audition times and details.
