Performance Opportunities

The award-wining Lamont Symphony Orchestra provides comprehensive and intensive training that prepares students for careers as orchestral musicians.

Lamont Opera Theatre presents fully staged operas, musicals, cabarets and concert performances.

As a member of one of Lamont's choirs, you can perform great repertoire, increase your musicianship and join a community that shares a passion for singing.

World-class, award-winning musicians direct our instrumental and vocal jazz ensembles. We regularly perform with guest artists at nationally acclaimed festivals and competitions, and we host quarterly performances on campus. 

Lamont's Department of Theatre produces two shows and a staged reading each quarter. Our season features a range of theatre styles from Shakespeare to devised work, musicals to contemporary plays.

The Lamont Wind Ensemble is known for its innovative programming that blends music with dance, visual art, and striking multimedia elements. With creative themes and bold collaborations—including recent partnerships with the Denver School of the Arts and the Black American West Museum—each performance offers a fresh, immersive concert experience.

At Lamont, you will have the freedom to explore all possibilities of chamber music and create a diverse combination of instrumental and vocal ensembles. We have ensembles for brass, guitar, percussion, piano, string and wind instruments.

Our contemporary music ensembles offer training and performance opportunities for a wide range of contemporary works. This challenging repertoire pushes students to explore the possibilities of what ensemble music can be.

Our world music ensembles represent cultures from around the globe, bringing the music of the Caribbean, Brazil, India and more right here to Denver.
