The Music Department is housed in the Paul W. Ogle Cultural and Community Center, located on the 177-acre Indiana University Southeast campus in suburban New Albany, Indiana. In addition to benefiting the educational mission of the University, the Center provides facilities for cultural and civic activities for people in Southern Indiana and the entire Greater Louisville region. Along with the performance venues, the Ogle Center contains the Ronald L. Barr Art Gallery, classrooms, practice rooms, teaching studios, an electronic music studio, and a music listening/computer instruction lab. Music Department performances take place in three performing spaces in the Ogle Center: the Richard K. Stem Concert Hall, Recital Hall, and the Robinson Theater.
