Performance: Strings, Woodwinds, Brass, Harp & PercussionBachelor of Music
Performance-based training
Because of the small size and unique nature of the conservatory, you'll receive a highly personalized and individualized education. Through private instruction, ensemble coaching and music-related classes, our faculty offer you comprehensive professional performance training.
As a part of our unique chamber music program, you will be thoughtfully assigned to a group each semester you are at Lynn. Each group will have a structured rehearsal schedule, formal weekly coachings and a required performance.
Under the musical direction of maestro Guillermo Figueroa, the Lynn Philharmonia attains a professional level of performance, enjoying tremendous public support for its symphonic programs. We distinguish ourselves through our orchestral training program as we guarantee consistent performance opportunities for every instrumentalist.
Additional opportunities include weekly studio classes and performance forums, mock orchestral auditions every semester, the New Music Festival and multiple master class opportunities.
All students accepted into the Conservatory of Music attend Lynn tuition-free.
