Music 0070 Ensemble for Credit


The Department of Music, in collaboration with the School of Arts and Sciences and the Student Activities Council, sponsors a wide range of performance activities that allow students to refine their musicianship in enjoyable and challenging ensembles. These ensembles, directed by leading professionals in the Philadelphia area, are open to all students, faculty, staff, and community members by audition and include: Penn Arab Music Ensemble, Penn Baroque and Recorder Ensembles, Penn Jazz Ensembles, Opera and Music Theater Workshop, Penn Chamber, Penn Collegium Musicum (formerly Ancient Voices), Penn Flutes, Penn Samba, the Penn Symphony Orchestra, the Penn Wind Ensemble, and the Penn Chorale.

Undergraduate students may elect to receive credit (0.5 credit/semester as MUSC 0070) for their participation in these professionally-led Department ensembles.  If you wish to register for MUSC 0070, upon the successful completion of an audition, please inform the director of your ensemble that you wish to be registered for credit, and s/he will inform the Music Department.  At that time, the Music Department will register you for the course.
 

Please Note:

At this time, the Music Department will only begin to issue permits for the Spring 2025 semester when the directors of the respective ensembles have provided us with a list of students who are eligible to receive credit in that semester. This will occur during the first week or two of the spring semester. Thank you.
