Since 1858, Baker music students have had all of the advantages an intimate small-college environment affords plus the performance opportunities of much larger schools. Baker music ensembles enjoy major international concert tours every three years. This ability to offer students a wide range of musical experiences makes Baker’s music program truly unique.

Baker is regarded as the top private college in Kansas. Located in Baldwin City in northeast Kansas, Baker was the first university in the state. It is ranked in the top 50 schools for economic value by The Economist, which is a testament to our excellent return on investment for students. Baker grads go on to earn the highest average salaries among graduates of universities in Kansas, and Baker University is the highest-ranked private Kansas university by the U.S. News & World Report.

The National Association of Schools of Music accredits the music department’s Bachelor of Arts in Music and Bachelor of Music Education degree programs. The Bachelor of Arts degree emphasizes the study of music in a liberal arts context. This program of study is designed for students who want to double major or who plan to pursue a career in musicology, composition, arts management, or the music business. Students may choose to focus in performance, music composition, jazz studies, history and literature, or interdisciplinary music theatre performance. The Bachelor of Music Education program leads

to preK-12 licensure in instrumental, vocal, or general music. Closely aligned with the Baker University liberal arts philosophy, the BME program prepares exceptional music teachers who are able to involve critical inquiry and interdisciplinary relationships in successful music teaching. Baker also offers a minor in music for students who wish to take courses in music theory and music history, study in applied lessons, and participate in ensembles.

The Baker Music Department offers many performance opportunities in ensembles for students to continue their

musical pursuits after high school. All ensembles are open to music majors and nonmusic

majors. Baker offers Symphonic Band, Jazz Ensemble, Wildcat Pride

Pep Band, Wildcat Drum Line, Orchestra, Concert Choir, Chamber Singers, Dixieland Band, Percussion Ensemble, Woodwind Quintet, Brass Ensemble, Treble Choir, and various other chamber

ensembles.

The Baker University bands enjoy a rich history and tradition of

excellence. In addition to the Baker Marching Band Festival, our band faculty

host a jazz festival every November, a high school honor band in February, a prefestival clinic for bands, and a trombone workshop. Our Jazz Band has performed with many world-renowned artists such as jazz trombonist Harry Watters, clarinetist Ken Peplowski, and jazz vocal legend and Baker alumnus Kevin Mahogany!

Music scholarships are available and offered to music majors and nonmusic majors for their participation in Baker University music ensembles and activities. Music scholarships are based on musical ability and potential shown through audition. For more information and to schedule an audition, please visit bakerU.edu/musicscholarship.

In memory of Baker University graduate Jeremy Frye who succumbed to a brain tumor in 2008, his family and friends began the Music 4 Jeremy’s Cherubs Foundation. Since its inception, M4JC has collected and reconditioned over 500 musical instruments and provided scholarships to music students and future music educators. Benefit concerts were held in 2009 and 2010 featuring the Mason Brothers, Bobby Watson, JCCC “Midnight Express,” Shawnee Mission South Jazz Band, BAC Horn Dr. Combo, and other professional jazz musicians. Following the organization’s theme, “Putting music in the hands of children and a lifetime of love in their hearts,” M4JC’s work has benefited students in need throughout the metropolitan area and beyond. Tonight’s band with the highest score will be awarded the Jeremy Frye Memorial Championship Trophy in his honor. Thank you to Meyer Music for sponsoring the Jeremy Frye Grand Champion Trophy!
