In Their Words
I have been involved with music for most of my life, so pursuing a Music degree at LVC just seemed right! I love how I can interact with music daily, surrounded by people who share my passion.

Music Major
As a music major at LVC, I explored a diverse array of course subjects, including choral conducting, music business, musical theater, and orchestration. This exploration allowed me to hone in on my specific interest in choral music, while also creating a well-rounded and enriching experience!
