Our Philosophy

The Zion Conservatory of Music is a Fine Arts Ministry of Christ Community Church. Christ Community Church has maintained the Conservatory for over 106 years as an expression of its vision to “enrich the wider body of Christ through God-glorifying music, worship and drama”.

The Zion Conservatory of Music embraces a mission that is based on the belief that every individual has the God-given capacity for artistic expression at some appropriate level of understanding and skill. Our mission is “to equip students to develop their God-given musical talents to be the best musicians they can be, to God’s glory, for a lifetime of musical activity, service, and appreciation.”

As a result we have a two-fold strategy:

1. To offer gifted students opportunities to realize their highest potential as performing artists.

2. To provide music education for all members of the community who desire it, regardless of age, professional intention or previous training

All Conservatory teachers have degrees in their field of music and/or significant professional experience. Each teacher expresses his/her Christian faith through a highly dedicated and excellent quality of teaching that is committed to the above two-fold mission of the Conservatory.
