Your 麻豆视频 Music Fam

Music is infused throughout the 麻豆视频 experience, and you can hear it in every corner of this building. Here, musicianship is a shared and supportive experience. It鈥檚 made by a mix of majors and practiced by everyone, curious to highly committed. The abbreviation for Fine Arts鈥揗usic on maps and the course catalog is 鈥淔AM.鈥 It couldn鈥檛 be more apt. 

What鈥檚 Cool About It

Its central feature is the 475-seat Jussi Bj枚rling Recital Hall, named for the Swedish tenor who sang lead at the Metropolitan Opera for two decades. (His costume from a production of Faust is on display in the lobby.) There are 34 individual practice rooms throughout the rest of the building, plus ensemble rehearsal spaces, teaching studios, general purpose classrooms, and a composition-theory music lab outfitted with music notation software. There鈥檚 an organ studio, and all the pianos are Stienways. The building is a bit of a maze鈥攊n the best way. Students who spend a lot of time in FAM find their special semi-hidden spaces. Truly, there鈥檚 music coming from every nook and cranny.  

Bj枚rling Recital Hall

One of the busiest spots on campus鈥攁nd for good reason. It鈥檚 where many of our music ensembles perform, and it hosts tons of student recitals and guest artist concerts throughout the year. With string ensembles often rehearsing in the space and a steady stream of performances, there鈥檚 almost always something happening here. Whether you're on stage or in the audience, it is the place to experience music at 麻豆视频.
