For more than 100 years, the Faculty of Music at the University of Toronto has been Canada’s leading institution for music creation, performance, education, and research.
The University of Toronto is an eclectic community of bright minds and creative leaders and the Faculty of Music is no exception.
As a cultural cornerstone in one of the world’s most diverse and dynamic cities, we prepare the future generation of art leaders – hundreds of performers, composers, scholars, and educators who shape tomorrow’s musical experience.
Our programs explore music’s intersections with technology, health sciences, and humanities, setting us apart from other institutions by offering unparalleled breadth and depth that encourages students to discover new possibilities.
U of T Music is the best of both worlds. As a student at U of T, you get access to the unparalleled resources and opportunities of the largest university and city in Canada. At the same time, you get the atmosphere and support of a close-knit family in the Faculty of Music, where the faculty and staff know you by name and a friend is always nearby. My professors have been an unwavering source of positivity, inspiration, and encouragement. We are so lucky to have such caring professors.
