The Setnor School of Music is located in Crouse College on the Syracuse University campus. The Rose, Jules R., and Stanford S. Setnor School of Music offers opportunities for the highest level of professional musical development and accomplishment within the context of a broad, humanistic education. We encourage the widest possible range of creative options for our students, recognizing that the Western classical tradition continues to grow and expand and that it is only one in a world of myriad others.
The school's departments focus on Education, Industry, Performance, and Composition & History of Music.
As a performing arts venue, the Setnor School of Music presents free performances of music in the historic Setnor Auditorium. Parking for concerts and events is convenient and available for free.
Music has thrived at Syracuse University since 1877, when the Department of Music was founded and SU became the first university in the United States to grant a degree in music and require four years’ study in both music and theory. Now known as the Rose, Jules R., and Stanford S. Setnor School of Music, the school continues this proud tradition by offering professional-level training through six undergraduate and four graduate degree programs that allow talented musicians and future music industry leaders to excel both collectively and as individuals.
