音乐
音乐 at Westminster means having the opportunity to perform in concert on the beautiful Werner Centennial 剧院 stage or in the reverberant Andrews Memorial 教堂 acoustics as a member of the school performing ensembles (bands & 唱诗班)或独唱. It means the chance to have weekly private lessons on an instrument or voice with accomplished instructors in order to improve technique and proficiency. Students can study music theory and history in a classroom setting. There are at least 10 钢琴s on campus accessible to students for practice and recreation.
Several acoustically enhanced practice studios are available in the Werner Centennial Center. 在冬季学期, the music and theater 项目 collaborate to 生产 a fully staged musical, complete with a pit orchestra of students and professionals.
All major concerts are professionally recorded, with CDs being available for purchase. Accomplished and eager student musicians are frequently tapped to perform during our weekly 教堂服务 and are encouraged to audition for and participate in Regional and All State 音乐 Festivals. Student organized rock bands and acappella vocal groups are also apart of the Westminster music scene.
The choirs are directed by 大卫Chrzanowski, who is also the school’s chapel organist.

剧院
剧院 has always been an integral part of the Westminster experience dating back to when the son of the school's founder wrote and directed productions each winter before he launched a very successful career as a Broadway 生产r.
The theater program at Westminster offers students the opportunity to experience all aspects of theatrical performance and production in the theoretical setting of the classroom and the practical arena of our department productions.
Classroom offerings consist of three levels of theater classes. All classes in the theater program are focused on the making of art. They are intentionally designed to get students up and on their feet and have them experience the art form: to learn theater by doing theater. Introduction to 剧院 is the gateway class to all other courses in the theater program. It exposes students to a variety of ideas and disciplines within the art form. It is open to all students in all forms. Independent 研究 in 剧院 is an intensive elective that prepares advanced students to dive deep into a specific area of interest. The topics are many and varied offering students the opportunity to gain depth as well as breadth.
Each year the theater program 生产s two productions in the state-of-the-art Werner Centennial 剧院: one dramatic piece spanning the varied genres of Western theater and a musical production. 在春季学期, student directed one act plays offer students the opportunity to direct a one act play as part of an evening of short plays. Each of these productions offers many opportunities for student involvement and leadership both on stage and backstage.
