University of Stellenbosch - Department of Music

The department's activities are not only designed to strengthen and shape the future of South Africa´s musical heritage but are consciously intended to do so within the present challenges and implications of cultural diversity and socio-economic inequality. It enables staff and students to partake in the free flow of musical ideas, artefacts and practices that is a hallmark of contemporary academia. The department's Centre for Music is an interdisciplinary research, teaching and service institution that strives to develop the commercial potential of the infrastructure and expertise of the Department of Music.
