Music Department Philosophy 

The RMSOTA music faculty is committed to assisting all students in their pursuit of musical excellence through:

  • developing strong music literacy skills,
  • studying music history with a holistic approach to genre & cultural diversity,
  • creating opportunities for cross-curricular collaboration, and
  • establishing routines for personal discipline in the practice room.

RMSOTA offers five different music major tracks including band, chorus, orchestra, guitar, and piano. Each area offers major and elective courses to middle and high school students in addition to a new music technology elective (added in 2019-2020).
