The Juilliard School opens its classroom doors to the public through the Evening Division.

Most Evening Division students are working adults who range in age from 18 through 98. Some are artists who want to improve their performance skills. Others are not musicians, but people who want to develop their listening skills in order to enhance their enjoyment of the arts.

Classes are taught by renowned experts in music and the performing arts, many of whom are faculty members from the College Division. Classes are designed to accommodate a variety of skill levels, from beginner to advanced. Each semester, the curriculum includes 50 to 60 courses that cover history (including classical music, jazz, and dance), music theory and ear-training, performance, and composition. Some courses may be taken for college credit.

Many of the classes include rare recordings or videotapes and appearances by guest artists. Most start after 5:30 pm and finish by 8:00 pm. All classes, both credit and non-credit, are taught at the high standards that make Juilliard the world's leading school for the performing arts.
