mission statement The Music Department at Macalester College welcomes all student musicians to take part in classes, lessons, ensembles, and special projects that celebrate music as both a source of beauty and an agent for positive change. The Music Department strives to combine the practice of music with its critical interrogation, recognizing that the study of music is at root an ethical pursuit, a means by which we learn to imagine empathy with others. A new arts center for Macalester is being planned. more» |
