Music and Music Education
Music to Our Ears
Our music program hits all the right notes: Coursework to build your skills, private lessons to fine-tune your talent, ensembles to find your musical crew and concerts that let you shine on stage (and yes, your mom can come and record the whole thing).
Thinking of teaching? You’ll leave our music education program licensed to teach vocal or instrumental music in K–12 schools — plus, you’ll gain real classroom experience with local teachers.
So bring your voice, your instrument or your unusual passion for timpani. At Central, we don’t just play music — we live it (and occasionally dance to it, too).
In Tune with Her Future
Lessons learned during her time at Central will prepare Anna Dennis ’27 for her own classroom.
