What matters most to us at Carnegie Mellon is an intense focus on the art of music, carried out in a school which places the one-to-one work of student and teacher at the heart of the musical experience. We believe that music is best served this way -- a tradition passed along hand to hand, mind to mind, heart to heart.

Integral to this process is superb coaching in ensembles, both large and small. Every Carnegie Mellon music student is part of an orchestra, chorus, or wind ensemble and chamber group with the highest standards of discipline and musicianship. Along with studio and ensemble, the third essential element of our curriculum is the strongest possible basis in musical skills and knowledge. We have an internationally known program in eurhythmics and solfege, complemented by outstanding offerings in history and theory. One of the best ways to learn is to teach, and we support a significant program of pedagogy and music education as a co-requisite to performance, an invaluable training component for a life in music.

"In this way," Schubert continues, "a productive tension results not only between material and technique (...an attempt to give structure to chaos), but even more so between what would have to be termed "sober-technical" compositional principles and the genuine direct expressive power and emotionality of the music."
