Department of Music and Worship

Cedarville University is an accredited institutional member of the National Association of Schools of Music.

In the Cedarville University Department of Music and Worship, Bach’s famous phrase “Soli Deo Gloria” (for the glory of God alone) is more than a slogan — it is the mission that drives all we do. We truly believe that our music and worship degree programs honor the Master Creator through our shared creativity.

Bach Literacy Concert

Join us on Monday, October 3, 2022, at 2 p.m. or 3:30 p.m. in the Dixon Ministry Center Recital Hall. The Series features Cedarville’s University Orchestra directed by Prof. Carlos Elias, along with a guest appearance by Dr. Steven Winteregg. A musical “petting zoo” will follow the performance where children can meet the performers up close and examine the instruments. The event is free, and the first 50 families or classroom teachers who register will receive complimentary copies of both books. This is made possible by the generous support of the School of Education and the Department of Music and Worship. Because seating is limited for both events, register early to secure your seats!
