BIG BAND

BIG BAND

To the lively and cunning Carmen or the soaring heights of How to Train Your Dragon, AUMO’s Orchestra does it all. Featuring over fifty musicians across all years of Adelaide University’s medical students, we play a wide assortment of fun musical repertoires to show off our talents.

In our Annual Concert, you will hear timeless pieces by classical composers, iconic film soundtracks and thematic medleys, arranged and self-directed! To any curious, wide-eyed first years, we rehearse on Monday evenings… and we don’t bite. Hope to see you there!

The AUMO Big Band is open to all skill levels – it doesn’t matter if you’ve never played a jazz standard in your life, we’d love to have you! In addition to playing at the Town Hall Concert in May, the band gets its own feature in the form of AUMO Prescribes Jazz, our mid-year gig that showcases an insanely diverse range of music. Jazz fusion, R&B, video game scores, electronic music, Latin – you name it. 

We never take anything too seriously, so come along for the most relaxed music practice you’ve ever had. Rehearsals are Thursdays 6-8pm at Madley Rehearsal Studio in the main uni campus. 

Vocal Ensemble30+ members. Singing A Cappella or accompanied songs. Traditional hymns, jazz, popular music, classics.

CHOIR

DANCE

Ever found yourself humming along to your favourite tunes while the radio is playing? Ever wanted to play music but unsure of where to begin with all these instruments? Well, we have the solution for you! 

AUMO’s Choir Ensemble are a group of Adelaide Medical students eager to sing our hearts out and create music right from our voices! From the latest hits to all time classics, we’re sure to sweep our audiences off their feet with our pitch perfect harmonies. 

No experience is required; be keen to take part in multiple performances throughout the year including the most anticipated annual AUMO Concert! Rehearsals this year will be held every Wednesday at 6pm at Madley Rehearsal Studio, Main Campus. Keen to see you there!  

Chamber choir is a small vocal group of approx. 10-15 people taking on an arrangement with multiple complex parts and harmonies. Our focus is to give those of you with a passion for a capella the opportunity to flex and practice your skills in a fun and lively environment! Sight reading is encouraged and favourable but not required. Perfect pitch is mandatory 😜

Chamber choir is an audition only group so keep an eye out for a sign up link coming out soon on the AUMO Facebook page. 

Rehearsals will be on every 2 weeks at first, then move to weekly as we approach the concert. Exact days / times will be based on availability of ensemble members!

Come join AUMO Dance

We currently have 1 group that dances primarily hip hop, with choreography of various styles made and taught by med students. No prior dance experienced required (emphasis on this)! Many of our choreographers, members and alumni had never danced in their life before joining. Rehearsals occur weekly up until we perform at the AUMO Annual Concert. As we regularly pull 20+ members a year, it’s a great way to meet new people, get creative and relax from a week of studying and placements. 

Rehearsals will be held every Thursday at 5:30pm! See you all there!
