The CSUSB Department of Music provides students with a rigorous musical education as a foundation for a lifelong understanding and love of music, as well as preparation for a wide variety of careers in music. We accomplish this through an emphasis on undergraduate education, small class size, and close interactions between faculty and students, all with a continual focus on artistic expression. Consistent with the university’s mission, the department is also committed to serving the campus and Inland Empire communities through on-going performance and educational initiatives. Modern musicians have access to more kinds of music than ever before in history, and CSUSB's music curriculum—with courses in electronic music, performance, world music, historical studies, music education and music theory—reflects that diversity in that it offers programs for students who wish to enter the teaching profession, become a professional musician, work in the music industry, pursue an advanced degree, or simply enrich their education.

CSUSB's Opening Concert is the Symphony Orchestra! In 1 week, October 22 at 7 PM, CSUSB Music Students, Alumni and Community Players will perform for the very first time in the Brand-New Performing Arts Center at CSUSB.

The program features the full Symphony Orchestra, showcasing a variety of genres—from classical music and film scores to jazz. A highlight of the evening will be a performance by our very own saxophone professor, Dr. Edgar Melendez, who will perform Saxanova by Bill Holcombe. This work is infused with warm harmonies and romantic, jazz-inspired melodies.

The program has been curated to celebrate our opening night in the brand-new Performing Arts Center at CSUSB. We invite you to share in our joy and experience this memorable evening of music with us! Go to CSUSB.edu/Music for tickets.
