Welcome to New Student Connections!

Attention new Music majors, we look forward to meeting you all at the Music Connections event on Friday, September 3 in the Music Center, 1014 S. Michigan.

You can check out our videos here: https://manifest.colum.edu/music

This will be your opportunity to meet Music Faculty and other students and ask any questions you might still have.

(This event is Hybrid)* You have the option to attend in-person at (1014 S. Michigan) OR online, as this event will be livestream!

The day starts with a faculty presentation in the Music Center Concert Hall (1st Floor) at 9:30am, followed by Q & A sessions from 10:15-10:45am. The presentation will also be live streamed. We are asking all students to fill out this form to let us know if you're attending in-person or virtually. All students attending in-person should adhere to the college's Return to Campus Plan.

From 11am to noon we will have several jam sessions going on simultaneously in the Music Center – all instrumentalists should bring their instruments. (You will sign up for a jam session that morning.) We hope to cover all stylistic persuasions for both vocalists and instrumentalists.

We will provide pianos/keyboards, guitar and bass amps and drum sets. Anything else – guitars, horns, etc. – you will need to bring. If you play electric guitar or bass, please also bring a patch cord. Drummers, please bring your stick bag or at least one set of drumsticks.

There will also be a large jam just for vocalists. No need to sign up, just bring your pipes. Composition coordinator Ilya Levinson will be leading a Composition Workshop. Instruments will be very useful there as well, so bring them along!
