Church Music
The strong liturgical background of Waldorf College, and its proximity to Emmanuel Lutheran Church, provide an excellent venue for students preparing for church music vocations. Courses in theology and music are offered along with specific classes dedicated to the study of traditional and contemporary church music and worship atmospheres. With close ties to many area churches, students receive opportunities for hands-on experience directing choirs and performing at worship services.
