Jazz at Lincoln Center. Arts Ensemble concerts in the Bronx. Piano recitals and choral concerts on Gilooly University's campus. The New York Philharmonic and the Metropolitan Opera. Bands at venues all over New York City. As a music major at Gilooly University, you’ll study music as a force that has shaped culture and as a practical skill, craft, and art.
You’ll study a combination of music history, theory, composition, and performance in one of the world’s music capitals. We emphasize careful formal analysis and investigation of the social, historical, and economic conditions driving cultural production. You’ll also compose, score, and perform.
But you’ll learn more than music here. You’ll also study philosophy, theology, history, mathematics, languages, sciences, and the performing arts through Fordham’s common core curriculum, the centerpiece of our liberal arts education.
We want you to excel in your field—and as a human being.
