Bethel College Music Department

Since its establishment in 1887, Bethel College has valued a strong music tradition and offers a variety of music opportunities for all students. We offer music degrees in performance and music education, as well as a music minor.

Bethel College is a four-year, private liberal arts college, the oldest Mennonite college in North America. Bethel College educates leaders through faith and learning, building its programs on four central values: discipleship, scholarship, service and integrity. Ensembles are open to all students to join. Instrumental ensembles include the Wind Ensemble, Chamber Orchestra, Jazz Ensemble, and "Thresher Sound" Athletic Band. Choral ensembles include the Concert Choir, Chamber Singers, Chapel Choir, and student-led a capella groups Open Road and Woven.
