Musician entering the Oberlin Conservatory
Oberlin Conservatory is one of the few American conservatories to be completely attached to a liberal arts college. One advantage which this offers students is the opportunity to seriously pursue degrees in both music and a traditional liberal arts subject (through Oberlin College via the five year Double-Degree program).
The conservatory building was designed by Minoru Yamasaki in 1963. The style of the building closely resembles Yamasaki's later design of the World Trade Center in New York City.
The conservatory offers undergraduate degrees in:
- Composition
- Jazz Studies
- Technology In Music And Related Arts (TIMARA)
- Organ
- Piano
- Vocal Performance
- Music Education
- Music Theory
- Music history
- Historical Performance
- All orchestral strings (including harp) and winds
- Guitar
- Percussion
