"The faculty provides each student with one-on-one attention and helps every person feel like a vital part of the music program. The word that best describes the School of Music at SFA is 'Family.' From the moment you step into your first theory class to the time you walk across the graduation stage, you know that your life has been touched by caring people and the gift of music." Miranda Fort, Sophomore music education major from Hallsville

The School of Music at SFA is committed to providing graduate and undergraduate curricula with a wide variety of musical experiences, designed to prepare students to confidently begin or continue careers in music education, performance and composition. Our goal is to graduate persons who are highly competent musicians, accomplished performers, sensitive artists, and articulate musical leaders who clearly understand the value and role of music as part of our cultural heritage and welfare and also as part of the very essence of human existence.

To that end, the School of Music is also committed to attracting and retaining students and faculty of the highest quality possible and dedicated to the creation of an academic climate in which both may work and interact with broad creative freedom.
