Program Overview

Our two-year Music Diploma will help you develop the industry-ready knowledge and confidence you need to launch your professional career. Strengthen your skills through private lessons in voice or your chosen instrument, and take music classes in music theory and history, performing ensembles and class piano. You’ll also have the option to audition for one of Douglas’s performance groups, where you’ll get live performing experience through concerts, recordings and festival appearances.  

Our high ratio of faculty to students allows you plenty of one-on-one instruction. Our faculty members are active performers locally, nationally and internationally. They are committed to providing you with a learning experience that is both challenging and supportive. 

Many Music Diploma graduates transfer to university to pursue careers as public-school music teachers. The diploma program also provides a basis for further studies directed toward performance, composition, private teaching and other careers in music.
