Please observe the regulations as posted in the Studios, and follow the monitor's instructions. If you have never used the studio before, you will need a permission slip from the Studio supervisor.


Music Technology & Teaching Labs

The Music Technology and Teaching Lab (Room 405) has 16 Yamaha Clavinova Digital pianos with headphones, and a lab aid to assist you. In addition to the classes that are regularly taught, the lab is available for individual practice. Check the schedule posted outside the lab door for availability.

Lab Schedule:

Students registered in the Music program who are taking Theory and Keyboard classes primarily use the lab. Other music students who wish or need to work on a keyboard may use the lab when all regular practice rooms are occupied. Ask the lab monitors for assistance the first time you come in to practice.

The Music Technology and Teaching Lab is unavailable for practice during class sessions.
