Classical Guitar Ensemble
The 加州大学洛杉矶分校 Classical Guitar Ensemble exists to serve students whose primary instrument is the classical guitar by developing and amplifying their talents through practice and performance opportunities on and off campus.
The classical guitar ensemble performs a wide range of music from Baroque to Contemporary repertoire as well as music of Latin America. The ensemble not only performs each term as a course requirement, it has become a favorite source of music for events. The 加州大学洛杉矶分校 Classical Guitar Ensemble is also the Gohar & Ovanes Andriassian Guitar Festival Ensemble, each year performing works by the festival composition competition winners. In 2018 the guitar ensemble initiated a European Tour, and with the generosity of many sponsors and the hard work of the members of the ensemble, toured and gave concerts in London, 罗马, 西西里, 和马耳他.

New 音乐 Ensemble
The New 音乐 Ensemble at 加州大学洛杉矶分校 serves to give students the opportunity to perform contemporary “non-commercial” music written by professional composers in a wide variety of genres and styles. The bulk of the repertoire is from the past 20 years, but it is possible that music from earlier in the 20th century may be programmed because it fits the theme of a specific concert. Because the makeup of the ensemble varies from semester to semester, repertoire will be chosen that best highlights students’ abilities and includes interesting and well-crafted music that will be enriching for both performers and audience, 都. Participants will sometimes perform in a medium other than their primary instrument or voice, doing things such as speaking, 唱歌, banging on things, 等.

长号合唱团
