Following a successful year working together and developing our musical offerings, BU and the Arts University Bournemouth (AUB) have formed a partnership to become University Music.

This partnership has attracted a variety of musicians with different skills, seeing students from BU and AUB coming together to perform in one our three choirs, Big Band, Orchestra and Brass groups.

There are groups to suit all musical tastes and abilities, and new recruits are always welcomed. Membership is free to BU and AUB students, so if you’re interested, go along to a weekly practice groups during term time in the Student Hall, Talbot House, Talbot Campus.

You can see them perform in on campus and around the local area all year – check their autumn program of events for what’s on from now until the winter break.

Music volunteers

The University Music volunteer group support events and concerts, so if you’re musical but not a musician, this might be a good option for you. All you need is lots of enthusiasm and willingness to donate your time. University Music volunteers can earn up to 30 points towards the BU Student Development Award.
