Pitt-Greensburg offers its students a growing program of music study. Its classes span the history of Western Art Music, and also provide opportunities to learn about such topics as American popular music and film music. The music program also offers a two-semester sequence in Music Theory, and has recently expanded its instruction with the addition of private lessons in piano performance.
Many students across the university sing with the Pitt-Greensburg Chorale, the featured choral ensemble of our campus.
