An Incubator for Artistic Excellence

MSU’s Community Music School Detroit is an outreach division of the MSU College of Music that cultivates a diverse and connected community by providing opportunities for lifelong education, college and/or career readiness, mentorship, and belonging. Students ages 0-100 engage weekly in high-quality and accessible sequential music education through early childhood music, music therapy, group and private lessons, youth ensembles, adult ensembles, and music production classes. Since opening our doors in 2009, CMSD has striven to support the vibrant cultural legacy within our city. When combined with access to inspiring music education, this results in an undeniable recipe for the continued success of personal development, fostering enriched lives through the power of music.
