Music
Each year our students put on hundreds of music events that inspire the university and local communities.
Help Us Renovate McCain Room 201
For decades, Room 201 in McCain Auditorium has been the beating heart of music at Kansas State University. If you’ve ever been part of the K-State music family—as a student, parent, patron, or concertgoer—you’ve felt its impact. It’s where our largest ensembles rehearse: the concert bands, symphony orchestra, jazz bands, percussion ensembles, and more.
For the first time in its history, McCain 201 is ready for a transformational and health-essential renovation—and you can be part of it. With matching funds available for a limited time, your donation goes further than ever. Your gift will be matched at 2.5x its value until July 11. Every dollar you give will unlock even more: $100 becomes $250, $200 becomes $500.
Music at K-State
We invite you to discover all that our programs have to offer, from the highest quality undergraduate and graduate experiences to our innovative learning environments within the classroom, concert hall, teaching studio, on the field, or in the practice room. Our vibrant atmosphere of engaged learning inspires creativity, leadership, and commitment to our university and community.
Our students include music majors, minors, and non-majors interested in growing as creative artists, teachers, scholars, leaders, and individuals. Our students organize and perform hundreds of inspiring music events each year on campus, in our city, across the state, and around the world. K-State music students see life-long success and benefit from the individual attention that a world-class faculty and a welcoming, student-centered environment provides.
