The UAH Department of Music has grown into one of the
outstanding musical organizations in the region. If you would like to
support the continued growth of this department, there are several ways to
get involved. For more information, contact the UAH Department of
Music at 256-824-6436.
Specific needs identified by the Department of Music
include:
-
Scholarship Support — Scholarship support in the
Department of Music has grown dramatically in recent years to more than
$58,000 for 2006-07. Unfortunately, that is only about $800 per
music major, as our enrollment has more than tripled over the past nine
years!
-
Visiting Artists — the Department of Music has been fortunate to be able to
present a number of outstanding guest artist concerts and recitals over the
years. Donors are sought to sponsor more such events.
-
Student Ensemble Travel — Student ensembles in
the UAH Department of Music are a genuine source of pride for our
university and our community. One of the best ways to spread our
reputation is to take these ensembles on the road. Funding for
local, regional, and international performance trips will be greatly
appreciated.
-
Equipment — Music is one of the most expensive
departments on any college campus, with constant equipment needs to
support ensembles and other educational activities.
-
New Music Commissions — One of the best ways to
get students excited about the creation of music is to collaborate with
a composer in presenting the world premiere of a new composition.
-
Tuxedos — Do you have a nice tuxedo hanging
somewhere that you know will never fit you again? Consider
donating it to the UAH Department of Music to be used by a student in
one of our ensembles. It's time to let that tux out of the closet!
