Music
Program Overview
Music education helps develop well-rounded students who are creative thinkers, innovators and problem solvers. Louis St. Laurent is home to one of Edmonton’s most vibrant music programs. As the core to our programming, we embrace the benefits of Middle Years Program (MY)P. We encourage our music students to view the world through many lenses and explore creative ways of learning, collaborating and performing their musical ideas. Students have the opportunity to participate in a wide range of ensembles and experiences that are sure to enrich their development.
