Facilities
NYU
features state-of-the-art teaching facilities, each configured for
digital and multi-media instruction. The Noah Greenberg Collection of
Musical Instruments (containing the collection of the New York Pro
Musica Antiqua) forms the nucleus of the department's ensemble for the
performance of early music, the Collegium Musicum. The Affelder
Collection of World Musical Instruments serves as a source for the
performance collection of the World Music Ensembles and also as a
repository of rare and important instruments for study and classroom
use. The Ethnomusicology Laboratory and the Washington Square Computer
Music Studio provide digital resources for research and composition.

NYU Music Resources
Many resources are
available
for student use, including the Bobst Library, which houses an important
collection of music, books, periodicals, videos/DVDs, and microfilms of
relevance to musical study. The Avery Fisher Listening Center in the
Bobst Library offers students and faculty access to recorded sound
sources. Our students can take part in ensembles resident in the Music
Department, those sponsored by the NYU Center for Music Performance,
and those sponsored by the Steinhardt School of Education Department of
Music and Performing Arts Professions.
