The IUP Department of Music has a wide variety of performance ensembles for musicians on every instrument and voice type. All ensembles are available to any student currently registered for classes on IUP's main campus. Music majors will receive information about auditions in the summer for fall ensembles and in the winter for spring ensembles. We invite non-music majors to fill out our Ensemble Interest Form to receive more information about auditioning. Any IUP student who has reached 15 credits of classes may participate in additional ensembles for zero credit, so you can be part of the IUP music scene without having to pay additional tuition.
