The 70-member UBC Symphony Orchestra presents a series of concerts each season at the Chan Centre. Its programming covers a variety of musical forms spanning the 18th - 21st centuries, including the standard orchestral repertoire, new music and lesser-known works.
The orchestra also performs with the UBC Opera Theatre, and in joint concert with the University Singers and UBC Choral Union in the performance of large choral works. The orchestra was featured in the inaugural concerts of the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts.
The University Singers are a choir of approximately 40 mixed voices. This ensemble performs major works of the choral repertoire appropriate to its size. Winner of several awards, including the C.B.C. National Choral Competition and the B.B.C. International Choral Competition, the choir usually tours British Columbia and occasionally further afield, including European tours.
