The SCN Music Department: Pursuing Perfection Every Day

The Music Department at St. Charles North is comprised of hundreds of the most dedicated students in the school, expressing their artistry through one of more than 20 ensembles. Recognized multiple times by the GRAMMY Foundation, the SCN Music Department strives to offer the best music education in the country. We are pleased to receive strong support from our parents, administration, and community as we pursue this goal. Our students and ensembles have been recognized at local, state, and national levels for their work. Many of our alums continue to perform and teach professionally.

The department provides many opportunities throughout the year to hear our musicians. Some of the highlights of the year include the Veterans Celebration, the Constellation Concert, the Jazz Showcase, and the Spring Gala. Please take a look at our calendar and we hope to see you at some upcoming events.
