    Our Mission

    The mission of the Community Music School at Southwestern College is to nurture the fine arts community of South Central Kansas and North Central Oklahoma with rich, musical experiences for people of all ages. Our vision is to encourage excellence in the arts by offering a wide array of private lessons, master classes, ensembles, performance opportunities, and more on the campus of Southwestern College.

    General Information

    Located in the Darbeth Performing Arts building on-campus at Southwestern College, the Community Music School (CMS) offers an array of musical activities for students, teachers, and performers of all ages. Any ensemble is welcome to join and be coached. A wide variety of classes are available semester by semester. All band and orchestra participants are invited to join the Southwestern College Concert Band or the South Regional Kansas Symphony by audition with Professor Daniel Stevens. Also, Southwestern has several software programs available for composition and aural skills. There is also a large piano lab available for accompanists and group piano classes.

    For independent teachers this is a great facility to launch your personal studio. You can write your own studio policy and use Darbeth to teach all of your students. You can also hold student recitals on campus!

    If you are interested in taking private lessons, being a part of a chamber ensemble, learning to hone your improvisational skills, or learning to compose your own masterpieces, the CMS will help you receive the education you need by studying with college professors, community members, or college students. Check out which lessons and classes are available! (All files will open as PDF)
