The University of Kent has a flourishing programme of music and students of all subjects, together with staff and the local community, have the opportunity to get involved in the wide-range of extra-curricular music activities.

As well as the many concerts on campus, there are also opportunities to perform in other venues, including the spectacular surroundings of Canterbury Cathedral and on tour abroad.

If you sing or play an instrument you can join the Chorus, Symphony Orchestra, Concert and Big Bands and Chamber Choir which rehearse weekly for public concerts each term. Many other ensembles and bands are formed each year, and budding soloists and conductors also have a chance to develop their talents.

The numerous concerts on campus feature all kinds of music, ranging from classical and Jazz to world and folk, and the University presents a regular series of Lunchtime Concerts which feature both professional and University performers. Workshops are held with visiting musicians and the University has an exciting partnership with the world famous Brodsky Quartet.
