    Rice University - Shepherd School of Music


    Comment on Facebook

    In just 30 years, Rice's Shepherd School of Music has become one of the nation's most prestigious major university-level music programs. The school has attracted an international student body and faculty whose impact on the cultural life of Rice and greater Houston is apparent everywhere . It is housed in an extraordinary facility: Alice Pratt Brown Hall, a showplace of the entire university.

    The $22 million facility represents the heart of the Shepherd School's rise to excellence. The grand foyer invites audiences to enter some of the finest performance spaces in the city. Its Stude Concert Hall, Duncan Recital Hall, and Edythe Bates Old Recital Hall enjoy outstanding acoustics and attract audiences of more than 70,000 music lovers each year. Farther inside the building, long hallways of practice and chamber music rooms, recording studios, and faculty studios resonate with energy.

    Shepherd School students take applied music lessons and core music courses from some of the most accomplished faculty in the nation and perform in ensembles with other musicians on the undergraduate, graduate, and professional levels.
