At the Five Colleges, each music department has its own identity, its own range of offerings, and a particular emphasis that sets it apart. A variety of special cooperative arrangements among the departments give students access to their combined faculties, courses, music libraries, and guest artists. Departmental concerts and recitals, coupled with joint concerts and residencies, ensure a lively calendar of musical events and furnish a remarkable array of resources for the study and performance of music of every period and style.
