| Classrooms The classrooms in the main Music building are equipped with grand pianos and also serve as chamber music rehearsal rooms. These rooms are equipped with integrated stereo systems. These are important rehearsal and masterclass spaces for the Faculty, the Preparatory Studies Division and the Suzuki program. |
Studios Our professors' studios are situated throughout the main Music building as well as the Music 2 Annex.
