Creative and critical thinking are used by students and faculty to grow individually as artists and skilled cellists and support the growth of your fellow musicians. You'll have weekly private faculty lessons and performance classes and access to an array of orchestras, bands, chamber groups and more. Nurture your artistic personality while developing the tools to express your skills, ideas, and creativity with your instrument.
