Cleveland Institute of Music
The Cleveland Institute of Music is a conservatory that presents over 400 concerts to the public during every school year. CIM is one of just three independent conservatories in the country to focus solely on classical music performance. In addition to music degrees in 26 areas, CIM partners with Case Western Reserve University to offer students the chance to add a double major in a field outside of the performing arts. Several CIM faculty are members of the Cleveland Orchestra.
