It is always a great day when we can fill Hamre Recital Hall with all of our student musicians! We can't say for certain whether or not our student musicians represent every major offered on campus but we would be willing to bet it is darn close. In fact a good percentage of our students have majors and/or minors outside of music and media productions. Welcome to the 2026-27 academic year!

Our students are doing amazing things!

Behind every great production is a whole team making the magic happen … and sometimes even an AU student! 🎥 🎬

Henry Knudtson ‘27, a media production & entrepreneurship major from , is interning with Evergroove Studio in Evergreen, Colorado. As part of his internship, he’s gaining experience in recording, mixing and mastering immersive audio production!

“What I have gained from this internship has been more than I could have ever asked for and critical in understanding common industry communication, deadlines and cross-team workflows.”

Music lovers will appreciate the craftsmanship behind "Saxy" by Victor Yepez.

Built from welded metal and inspired by the iconic instrument, this sculpture captures the rhythm, movement and energy of jazz in a striking three-dimensional form.
