Collegium Musicum
The Duke Collegium Musicum
is an organization of undergraduate and graduate students and other interested
members of the Duke community devoted to the performance of early music for
small groups of voices and instruments. Its repertory includes (but
is not limited to) Gregorian chant, Renaissance motets and madrigals,
and Baroque sonatas and cantatas.
The Collegium is open to all members of the Duke community with an interest in performing music that is both unusual and exciting. The ability to read music is necessary, and some prior experience in chamber music or choral singing is helpful. The Music Department owns a number of period instruments (from gambas to sackbuts) that can be made available to qualified participants. There is also the opportunity to participate in recorder and viol consorts.
To audition, please email Karen Cook, Director of the Collegium Musicum for the 2009-2010 season.
