Shepherd University is located in the beautiful Appalachian mountains of West Virginia’s Eastern Panhandle, only about an hour from all of the additional cultural opportunities of Washington, D.C. The program is housed in the Frank Arts Center, which includes teaching studios and practice rooms, classrooms and rehearsal halls, Shipley Recital Hall for solo and chamber music concerts, and the larger Theater for large ensemble concerts and productions. The school owns a Salvi Symphony semi grand pedal harp that is available for student use for practice and ensembles. There is also room in the harp studio for storage and practice on student owned instruments. Financial aid is available including music scholarships, academic scholarships, and additional assistance based on financial need. Please contact Dr. Tula Ruggiero for more information on auditions.

Program summary
The harp department at Shepherd is small enough to provide individual attention, while intense enough to allow each student to reach their full potential. Students develop the creativity and discipline to become professional performers, teachers, attend graduate school, or to use their skills in other fields. We offer a full range of study such as private instruction, chamber music, theory and history (including specialties in jazz and Appalachian studies), and large ensembles.
