Giving Cougs a 21st-Century Music Education

The WSU School of Music has a long tradition of educating tomorrow’s educators, performers, composers, and artistic executives. As our students grow through their degree programs, the School offers experiential learning through concert tours across the region and the world, guest artist residencies, internships in recording studios and record labels, and opportunities to engage with K-12 students across Washington state.

The School of Music Excellence Fund provides needed support for music student scholarships, ensemble tours, on-campus guest artist performances and master classes to enrich students’ on-campus experiences, faculty development, and purchase of instruments and equipment for various WSU classrooms and ensembles.

Thank you for your investment in the future of music during #CougsGive!
