UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA THE DIVISION OF MUSIC GENERAL STATEMENT The Division of Music was organized to serve the University and the State in a three-fold pattern: to provide sound guidance and thorough training for its gifted stu- dents whose career goal is professional music; to serve the state's music and education structures through teacher training, leadership and statewide cooperation; to bring the gift of music, in concert offerings and participation opportunities, to all its people, as its contribution to the cultural enrichment of the campus, civic and state families. CONCERTS AND RECITALS Organized music groups, small ensemble groups, faculty and student soloists offer concerts and recitals weekly in the University Auditorium. These concerts are open to the public without charge, and students are particularly encouraged to attend. ARTIST COURSES Each year the Division of Music sponsors an Artists Course, bringing to the campus artists of national prominence. This series, along with the concerts sponsored by the Lyceum Council, provides a full and diversified musical calendar. ENSEMBLE Membership in ensemble music groups is open to all students of the University, after consultation with the Director. One credit per semester is offered in each group. The following courses are offered: University Band, Chbral Union, Men's Glee Club, Women's Glee Club, University Orchestra, Mixed Quartet, Male Quartet, Women's Sextet, String Quartet, String Trio, Woodwind Quintet, Brass Ensemble, and Two-piano Ensemble. These groups are organized to study and perform the standard repertoire written for the various vocal and instrumental combinations. Ensemble par- ticipation is a musical experience of inestimable worth. APPLIED MUSIC Applied Music is defined as lessons in voice and musical instruments.
