The choral ensembles offer an opportunity to study and perform a variety of choral music of many styles, contexts, and cultures, including classical masterworks with instruments and art and folk music of many traditions. Choral ensemble experiences encourage and reinforce healthy singing technique, provide an awareness of cultural and historical style, tradition and context, refine critical listening and reading skills, encourage analytical thinking through analysis-in-practice, and provide a community of musicians an opportunity to explore together the power of shared music-making.
UCF’s orchestra ensembles serve approximately 200 students from across the university through two ensembles. The program provides a musical outlet for string, brass, woodwind and percussion players throughout the university community regardless of major, as well as professional training for music education and performance majors.
