<p>I was wondering if as an undergrad at Emory, are you able to be in Choir even if you are not a music major. How selective are the choirs and any other info you know on music would be great!!</p>
<p>My experience with Emory’s music program has been absolutely phenomenal. Both the University Chorus and the Concert Choir (as well as all a capella groups, the Emory Symphony, the Emory Wind Ensemble, and numerous other music groups) are open to music majors and non-majors alike. Emory prides itself in being a true liberal arts institution, and students are very much encouraged to have multidisciplinary interests. It is very common to find a student who might be a business or science major but who is also involved in the Music program and/or athletics, etc.</p>
<p>I know that the a capella groups are more selective than the concert choir. The a capella groups typically accept 1-3 freshmen whereas you can easily get into the choir. One of my friends has never done choir before and he got in.</p>
<p>Hell, there are even Chemistry teachers in the choir.</p>
<p>^^^ Actually, I think you’re talking about the University Chorus. Almost anybody can sing in that group, but the Concert Choir is smaller and much more selective.</p>
<p>Are you talking about prof Mulford? Dang, I didn’t know that!</p>
<p>does anybody know if the instrumental groups require that you are a music major (wind ensembles, orchestras, etc?)</p>
<p>The symphony, wind ensemble, and all other instrumental groups are open to both music majors and non-majors. And they’re pretty awesome. :)</p>
<p>Do you have to go through an audition to join the symphony?</p>
<p>^^^^ Yes.</p>
<p>Yes, I meant Chorus.</p>
<p>I am ignorant and group both into the same category.</p>
<p>Yes, I was talking about professor Mulford!</p>
