Founded in 2017, the UCF New Music Ensemble is a performance-oriented chamber group focused on diverse repertoire from the 20th and 21st-centuries. The ensemble is used as a laboratory for instruction in chamber performance skills encompassing the various styles of conventionally notated works but will also introduce other contemporary approaches such as improvisation, electro-acoustic music, and graphic scores. The ensemble frequently rehearses and premieres newly composed works by resident students, faculty and visiting guest composers. Registration Link: https://cah.ucf.edu/events/music/

This year's UCF Opera scenes program consists of four brief operas in English and an added scene from a famous operetta (also performed in English). The four identical concerts (Nov. 9, 10 and 16 in the Rehearsal Hall) are a product of an Opera Workshop class. The course instructors, Thomas Potter and Robin Jensen, customize the choice of scenes each year. This year's selections center on a game of bridge, three anxious coeds in a dorm room, the making of a pizza, a lesson in carefully choosing one's stated dreams and the aforementioned operetta Closer. Come and support the future of opera, and expect to have a good time doing it - appropriate for all audiences.
