Mission Statement

The Howard Community College Music Department endeavors to meet the musical needs and interests of the area through its academic degree programs, performance mediums, and enrichment opportunities as well as through its noncredit division, The Music Institute at HCC, and the HCC Division of Continuing Education. The Music Department and its noncredit counterparts are committed to their roles as leaders in the cultural life of this community and providers of lifelong learning experiences.

Music For a Lifetime

Our comprehensive department boasts excellent performing opportunities, the innovative Music Therapy Program, an environment that embraces and promotes technological advances, the ability to enrich the greater community through an extensive concert schedule, and a diverse faculty who are known both as excellent teachers and performers. We invite you to pursue "music for your lifetime" here at HCC. 

Please check our Calendar/Events for upcoming concerts and programs. You should find the answers to most of your questions through the buttons to your left, but if you would like more information about our division, please send an email to dkent@howardcc.edu or to the coordinator for each program of study.

Thank you for visiting us. We look forward to hearing from you.
