Facilities
The Fletcher Center for Music
received a wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling
renovation,
as well as a considerable expansion, in recent years. With updated rehearsal and performance
spaces, new classrooms, new practice and faculty studios, a new digital
MIDI piano lab, and all new pianos (Oklahoma Christian is one of fewer
than sixty All-Steinway
colleges and universities nationwide), the department is equipped and ready to meet
the needs of current and future music students.
Music groups utilize three principal performance venues in
the Garvey Center: Hardeman Auditorium (1,184 seats), Judd Theatre (275
seats), and the Recital Hall (190 seats). Upon the reopening of the complex following renovations, one reviewer referred to
this facility as "the most splendid fine arts complex in the entire
state" (Edmond Evening Sun, November 7, 1999).
