About
Electric Guitar Ensemble
The Electric Guitar Ensemble’s repertoire primarily centers on jazz, rock and pop styles. It offers guitar students an excellent opportunity to develop their skills in commercial music performance. It also enables students to hone their composition and arranging skills, as certain pieces may be composed or arranged by students in the ensemble.
Classical Guitar Ensemble
The Classical Guitar Ensemble's repertoire is drawn from the canon of traditional classical music, including Baroque, Classical and Romantic periods, as well as modern and new works written for guitar ensemble. The Classical Guitar Ensemble affords guitar students an entry point into performing in an ensemble and an opportunity to build their skill sets.
