The University of Delaware Community Music School (UDCMS) is the outreach program of the University of Delaware School of Music.

Our current programs include private study instruction with a wide range of instructors from students in the School of Music to professional performers with extensive experience.  In addition, we have a vibrant Suzuki program and three youth choirs ranging from first grade through high school.  Children under 6 are happy participants and eager learners in our Music for Young Minds classes.  We also offer many summer camps and specialized workshops.
