​"Our studio does a fantastic job of supporting each other. We are playing for one another all of the time, whether it's in a masterclass or simply needing help with a rhythm. Since being at DSU, I haven't felt attacked about my playing from another student, only encouraged. I love our studio for this and many other reasons. You guys rock!"

"Because our music department specializes in undergraduate degrees, all of our lessons are taught by our flute professor, and undergrads get leadership opportunities in the top ensembles!" --music education major
