Your studio teacher at NEC is an artist who embodies a rich musical tradition—classical, jazz, or world music—and provides one-on-one training in every detail of music making. Your teacher will challenge you to master your art through rigorous practice and performance. And your teacher will encourage you to take risks as you explore your individuality and learn to create a mature, convincing performance that is unique to you.

Beyond the studio, your ensemble coaches and conductors will engage you in the highest level of collaborative music making and in the masterworks of your repertoire. Classroom teachers will help you explore the historical and social frameworks that support our musical traditions. All of these faculty members will expect a great deal from you, and will provide the support, dedication, and inspiration to help you meet those expectations—so that you become the musician you can be.
