Hi guys, it's Katherine again.
Right now you're standing in front of Sloan Music Center,
a conservatory-quality facility on campus.
Inside are Tyler-Tallman recital hall,
a music library with over 10,000 books, scores, and recordings, a full orchestra
rehearsal room, a full choir rehearsal room, and rooms for individual practice. In addition a recording studio,
an electronic music studio, and keyboard lab were recently renovated, marking a huge increase
in recording quality. The Davidson College music department puts on over 100 concerts every year,
some of them on this stage, and about 25% of our students participate in the department
through coursework,
ensembles, individual instruction, and practice. There are also non-department sponsored a cappella groups, ensembles,
and student bands. Students also have the opportunity to enroll in private
music lessons and get involved in a variety of student performance groups, everything from the traditional choirs and orchestras to an
African drumming circle and a gospel choir.
