Music Lives at Carthage
As one of the first small liberal arts colleges to offer a degree in music, Carthage provides a rich musical tradition that can be traced back over a century, including the formation of one of the first college bands in America shortly after the Civil War, and one of the oldest college touring choirs in the country.
Today the Carthage Music Department continues to enrich that tradition. The department’s 10 full-time and 25 adjunct music faculty serve more than 500 students and 120 music majors and minors.

The Carthage Music Program adheres to the mission of the College: Seeking Truth, Building Strength, Inspiring Service—Together
It’s not a stodgy old saying recited at alumni banquets and presidential dinners. It’s a challenge. One that we put forth anew every single day. To our students. To our faculty and staff. To make this world a better place for all of us.
