America (Princeton Review), the Sonoma State Department of Music
offers multifarious performance opportunities in instrumental,

complex that includes Joan and Sanford I. Weill Hall, a 1400-seat
state of the art concert venue considered to be among the finest
performance venues in the country, and Schroeder Recital Hall, a
stunning 250-seat recital and chamber music venue. In addition, the
Green Center includes an education wing comprised of rehearsal
spaces, practice rooms, and conference facilities.
Since Weill Hall's Grand Opening in 2012, the breath-taking
acoustics of this uniquely designed space have attracted such
internationally renowned solo artists such as Lang Lang, Yo-Yo Ma,
Itzhak Perlman, John Adams, Anne-Sophie Mutter, Wynton Marsalis,

At Sonoma State University, developing artists cultivate their

Symphony, SF Ballet and Opera orchestra, the Santa Rosa Symphony,
The American Bach Soloists, The Philharmonia Orchestra, and
numerous other Bay Area professional orchestras. The Department
houses a number of large and small ensembles, thus providing
students a wide variety of performance experiences.
Department Curriculum
The core curriculum for music majors is a rigorous program that
provides a thorough foundation in such essential skills as keyboard
facility, theoretical understanding, aural perception, and analysis
of a wide range of music literature. All majors gain experience
with both the intuitive and the intellectual processes of the art.
The curriculum is designed to place the specialized study of music
in the setting of a liberal arts education and to serve as a firm
basis for careers in a wide variety of professions in music and
those related to music. Private voice/instrument lessons are
required of all music majors. All students attend a weekly
repertoire class.
