Community Music Division Endowed Scholarship in honor of Susanne Baker
Thanks to a generous gift from an anonymous donor, we have begun to secure our founder’s legacy and support students for years to come. Your gift to the Community Music Division will remove financial barriers for students who might not otherwise be able to pursue high-quality music studies and will help us establish the Community Music Division Endowed Scholarship in honor of Susanne Baker.
About Us
The Community Music Division (CMD) offers high quality music instruction to over 600 individuals in the Chicago area from children to adults, and beginners to the most advanced students. CMD provides opportunities for serious musical study in a nurturing environment where students can reach their full potential.
Taught by an outstanding faculty of 70 artist-educators, the school's comprehensive curriculum includes individual instruction on almost every instrument and voice, an early childhood program, and performance ensembles. The CMD serves additional communities through its partnership program with 7 Chicago Public Schools. We are committed to an inclusive learning environment that respects the diversity and perspectives of all participants.
Your donation allows us to provide significant financial assistance to students on campus and tuition-free musical instruction to students in our CPS Partnership Programs.
