The Bowdoin Department of Music prides itself on a universal approach to music and individual attention to students.

The Bowdoin College Music Department offers a wide variety of musical opportunities. Students can major or minor, take lessons, or participate in one of our eight ensembles: Chamber Choir, Concert Band, Orchestra, Chamber Ensembles, Jazz Ensembles, the Middle Eastern Ensemble, or Beyond Borders Percussion Ensemble, and the Electronic Music Ensemble. Over 25 percent of Bowdoin students participate in the Department of Music's programming.
