Since 1881, Concordia University’s mission has been teaching and preparing students for careers and vocations that serve The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. Music has always been an integral part of that mission. The music department contributes to the spiritual, cultural, artistic, academic and co-curricular aspects to University life on campus. As the campus has grown in scope and size the music department has become more integral to the University mission.
