Music
Emphases: Performance, Sound Recording Technology
"The aim and final end of all music should be none other than the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul."
-Johann Sebastian Bach, German composer, organist, violist, and violinist (1685–1750)
At Colorado Christian University, you can combine your passion for music with your education by earning a Bachelor of Arts in Music. The music degree prepares you for a broad range of musical and non-musical careers, and is excellent preparation for further study in graduate school. You can tailor the program to your unique interests by adding an emphasis in sound recording technology or performance.
Music In the Christian University
The focus of CCU's School of Music is to teach you how to impact your
culture for Christ, as well as how to honor Him and to share His love on
campus and around the world, using excellence in music to do so.
Integrated offerings combine classical, jazz, contemporary, and world
music with a progressive and distinctly Christian worldview to develop
students who are leaders – both in the world and in the Church. As a
Music major, you'll receive personal attention by an exceptional,
creative, and caring faculty who are themselves active performers and
clinicians who desire to not only teach but to also mentor students.
Opportunities include national tours for major ensembles, and on- and
off-campus recording studios.
Prospective students who are planning to major or minor in music are required to audition for participation in most ensembles and for consideration for music scholarships.

Mark Dorn
Associate Professor of Music & Coordinator of Instrumental Music
School of Music
It is my desire that all of my music and my students' music be an offering.I want our music to be an extravagant offering that blesses the Lord and provides a fragrance for all to enjoy.
In my interactions with students and colleagues, and in my music performing and leading, I try to keep an attitude of taking the human heart seriously - our passions, struggles, failures, and triumphs - so that Christ may be more fully formed in each of us.
