Ensembles
Students may perform as soloists or with small ensembles in a variety of concerts and are welcome to audition for the many department ensembles that give concerts each semester. Students join the ensembles for the semester and may take them for academic credit as adjunct courses.
The ensembles we offer include the Colorado College Choir with Orchestra, a Chamber Orchestra, Concert Band, Big Band Jazz, Chamber Chorus, the Bowed Piano Ensemble - which has cut CDs and toured annually to places such as Australia, Europe, and the Canary Islands. The Collegium Musicum performs early music and our world music ensembles - Balinese Gamelan, and African Music - perform on authentic instruments with dancers, under the direction of natives of the traditions represented. We also boast a series of Bluegrass Ensembles for all skill levels.
Additionally, the department may endorse student led and directed ensembles. Students can gain credit and coaching from the department for approved projects.
