Our concert series include the President’s Concert, an annual event showcasing our best performers in the mid-Atlantic region’s most esteemed concert halls. The School of Music’s engagement activities include ongoing concert series presented in the community and throughout the mid-Atlantic region, annual conferences and workshops designed for music professionals, and summer experiences designed for professional musicians as well as for developing performers. These ensembles are often invited to perform at professional association meetings and in educational settings. The School of Music also includes a number of faculty ensembles that perform and record extensively, both in the United States and abroad. Graduate credit (500-level) may be granted in select ensembles at the discretion of the director/conductor. These credits fulfill General Arts credits in many colleges and majors. Participants receive one academic credit per semester. School of Music ensembles, ranging from small chamber ensembles to large orchestras, bands, and choirs are open to all Penn State students, regardless of major. Expansive performance, research, and outreach opportunities are integral to the School of Music, and enrich the student experience. In addition, Penn State ensemble students regularly perform in the greatest concert venues on the east coast with our annual President’s Concert series. Beyond preparing students to develop and thrive as performers, teachers, and scholars, the School of Music offers more than 400 public events each year, and we also hear wonderful performances presented by the Center for the Performing Arts.
