A Supportive Place to Grow

Studying music at Emory has given me the space to grow both as a student and as a performer. Being surrounded by such a supportive environment has made all the difference, encouraging me to challenge myself, build confidence, and succeed in meaningful ways. I will always cherish the opportunities the Music Department has given me and the lasting impact those experiences have had on my personal growth and musical journey.

Meaningful connections and experiences

Majoring in Music at Emory has given me the chance to build close relationships with my peers, experience the joy of musical collaboration, and round out my liberal arts education with a rigorous curriculum centered on historical and cultural elements of music. Professors have been deeply invested in my growth as a scholar and performer, equipping me to pursue independent research, solo recitals, and ensemble leadership over the past four years. 

A fulfilling experience

My music studies at Emory ranged from orchestral performances to an entire class on 1960s music and from deep listening assignments to three weeks performing chamber music in northern Italy. I have grown as a harpist and ensemble player, and I have also grown as an intellectual musician through writing/research-based music courses. I have enjoyed learning from wonderful professors who care deeply for their students. I also loved being part of the EUSO community, which fills the program with such joyful mirth and vibrant musicianship.
