Mission Statement:
The Davidson College Music Department believes that music is an essential, priceless and irreplaceable component of human life, that music occupies and will continue to occupy a singular position in our culture, that music speaks to the human spirit, intellect, and emotion in a direct and special way, and that without music our very essence would be incomplete.

The Music Department will achieve its mission through a broad range of courses, through ensembles and other performing opportunities it offers to students and members of the college community, through performances and lectures it sponsors, through individual instruction, and through its links with academic and administrative departments within the college and with the community.
