Music Facilities

Wittenberg鈥檚 Music Department is located in Krieg Hall, where students have access to an impressive computer facility, electronic keyboard lab, two concert venues, and many band and orchestral instruments.

Wittenberg鈥檚 library has an extensive and varied collection of books, music scores, and professional journals, as well as a huge collection of recordings and videos of classical music, world music, and popular music.

John M. Chowning Laboratory for Music Technology

Computer Lab

Composer, inventor, and Wittenberg alumnus John M. Chowning (BM 鈥59) provided generous financial assistance for the Music Department鈥檚 computer lab, which supports students in their studio work and is used for teaching courses in music technology. Six workstations are equipped with Macintosh computers, MIDI keyboards, and software for music production and notation. The lab has a wide array of hardware synthesizers (Kurzweil, Yamaha, and Roland), a theremin, and tools for composing for video. Students can use programs such as Finale and Sibelius for music notation, and Ableton Live and GarageBand for pop music production and mixing.

Evelyn and Harold Figley Electronic Keyboard Lab

Harold Figley, BS 鈥49, BD 鈥53 (in memory of his wife, Evelyn, BM 鈥52) and the assistance of other alumni has made possible Wittenberg鈥檚 modern, 16-unit electronic keyboard lab with Casio PX 350 keyboards. Each keyboard has a full 88-note range, 250 preset sounds, weighted keys, and USB connectivity that enables MIDI playback and multitrack recording. All keyboards are networked together through the instructor鈥檚 MIDI programmable instrument, to allow the addition of MIDI accompaniments.

Music Instruments

HandbellsStudents and guest artists frequently perform in Wittenberg鈥檚 newly renovated Krieg Recital Hall, which is equipped with digital recording equipment. A 51-rank, 3000-pipe Reuter organ and a 9-foot B枚sendorfer concert grand piano are located in Wittenberg鈥檚 Weaver Chapel. Students have access to a wide variety of instruments in the music building:

  • more than 100 band and orchestral instruments for student use
  • two pipe organs
  • two harpsichords
  • a four-octave set of White Chapel handbells
  • 57 pianos, including 23 grands

FortepianoA John Donelson Lyon fortepiano, donated to the Music Department by Nancy Feld in January 2022, is housed in Krieg 312, a humidity-controlled studio that is also home to a two-manual harpsichord. These instruments are readily accessible for lessons and practicing, as well as for recitals in nearby Krieg Recital Hall. The fortepiano is a modern replica of Mozart鈥檚 1780 Anton Walter Viennese fortepiano and has these features: a range of FF-g鈥测测, single-escapement action, knee levers for dampers and moderator, natural key ebonies, bone-capped sharp/flat keys, and a decorative Walter music rack recreating Mozart鈥檚 instrument in d茅cor, touch, and sound.

Students have the opportunity to perform in four performance spaces:

  • Krieg Recital Hall
  • Krieg Hall courtyard
  • Weaver Chapel, used for performances by Wittenberg鈥檚 large ensembles, includes a three-manual organ with about 50 ranks, in a style often described as 鈥淎merican Classic.鈥
  • Founders Pub, in the Benham-Pence Student Center, is used for less formal performances.
