The Music Center
The department’s home is the Music Center, which contains teaching studios, rehearsal rooms, faculty offices, practice rooms (including eleven with pipe organs and five with SmartMusic accompanying software), a music instruction laboratory with sixteen workstations, an electronic piano lab, a recording studio, libraries for ensemble and organ music, and the 180-seat recital hall. A 3-manual, 38-rank organ by Casavant Frères was installed in the recital hall in 2008.
