Music Performance

Because learning to sing or play music is all about being immersed in a creative community while being guided by great teachers, Valencia is proud to introduce you to its two-year music program. Since 1975, the music program has been dedicated to the idea of inspiring future performers by providing students with musically trained faculty and an expanding array of resources and experiences to enrich, stimulate and develop your gifts in and outside the classroom.
