With a specialist for every aspect of the music curriculum, the Department of Music makes it possible for students to reach their highest potential.

Recently, UCA has played host to the National Symphony Orchestra, has commissioned an original opera, The Scarlet Letter, and has brought in world-class artists such as the Brentano String Quartet, Pancho Sanchez and his Latin Jazz Band, clarinetist Eddie Daniels, Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Karel Husa, the Washington Sax Quartet, Wynton Marsalis and the Lincoln Center Big Band, tubist Sam Pilafian, the Meridian Arts Ensemble, and the Dirty Dozen Brass Band.

The Department of Music plays an integral role in the local community of Conway. With our Community School of Music, which enrolls over 250 students every year, our partnerships with the Conway ArtsFest and Conway Symphony Orchestra, and our countless faculty performances in the Central Arkansas region, one could say that we are the “Center of the Arts” for Arkansas.
