The Department of Music and Performing Arts Professions

NYU Steinhardt’s Department of Music and Performing Arts Professions was established in 1925. Today, 1,500 students majoring in renowned music and performing arts programs are guided by more than 300 faculty. Our degree programs—baccalaureate through doctorate—share the Steinhardt School’s spirit of openness and innovation that encourages the pursuit of high artistic and academic goals. This unique vision takes many forms. In 1968, the Department merged with the New York College of Music. Since that time, Steinhardt Music and Performing Arts Professions has functioned as NYU's "school" of music and developed into a major research and practice center in music technology, music business, music composition, film scoring, music performance practices, performing arts therapies, and the performing arts-in-education (music, dance, and drama). Our rich and varied expertise and interests bring performance majors and composers together with choreographers, directors, actors, dancers, educators, librettists, and filmmakers in collaborative projects often reviewed by the New York media. Faculty sit on leading journal editorial boards and publish some of the most significant performing arts research on the scene today. Coupled with leading faculty and advanced studios in music technology and a internationally recognized program in music business, our Department and the Steinhardt School offer an unparalleled environment for artistic, professional, and scholarly challenge and growth.

The Music Business Program

The Music Business Program is one of the oldest and highest ranking music business programs in the United States. We are among the most competitive for admission, and enrol highly qualified and motivated students who earn a BMus or MA degree. We embrace a philosophy of teaching and learning that acknowledges the central importance of art and commerce in the successful management of music enterprises large and small. We teach about the past and present structure and operation of the music industry as a springboard to critical analysis and innovation. Our graduates are well equipped to be the decision-makers of the future in many areas of the music industry, including digital and mobile, music publishing, artist management, recorded music, music television and radio, event management, live performance (some are career musicians), and brand marketing.
