UConn Chamber Orchestra Club
UC Chamber is a student-led organization of primarily UConn undergraduates who are interested in playing orchestral music. Each semester, music selections are chosen by students and can vary from classical compositions to original anime soundtracks. Unlike a full orchestra, students come together to play in a smaller, more intimate ensemble to rehearse and prepare for end-of-semester concerts, showcasing a diverse body of talent in our music community. Please note that this website is decommissioned and no updates will be posted after spring 2024.

Who are we?
UC Chamber aims to spread the value and appreciation of music throughout the Storrs community. The organization aims to give players the opportunities to showcase their talents and continue their musical experiences beyond high school, regardless of their membership in other musical activities. UC Chamber will perform one in-house concert per semester and may also play at a variety of venues to support charitable events and organizations.We hold rehearsals on Sundays in the Music Building. UC Chamber welcomes wind and string players of all levels and requires no audition to join. However, we do hold placement hearings to assess skill level and seat members accordingly to determine parts. We also have the opportunity for student composers and arrangers to have their works performed and for student conductors to conduct.If you are interested in joining or would like to learn more, you can explore our social media linked below!
