Welcome to the VU-CHOIR!

The VU-choir is a big and diverse Amsterdam student choir. All music-loving students are welcome, regardless of voice type and level of experience. Each academic year, we have weekly rehearsals in order to perform several beautiful concerts. In recent years, we’ve performed pieces such as Petite Messe Solennelle by Rossini, Verdi’s Requiem in Het Concertgebouw, Gloria by Francis Poulenc, and The Johannes Passion and Mass in B minor by J.S. Bach. Our last project was Ein Deutsches Requiem by Johannes Brahms in the Mozes & Aäronkerk.

Concert history

Sing with us!

The “VU” in VU-koor stands for its connection with the Vrije Universiteit, but the name also stands for “Verenigd Universiteit Koor”, which means “United University Choir”. This conveys that anyone can join our choir, no matter what university, academy or college they study at. In fact, even non-students are welcome! Whether you’ve enjoyed a complete musical education or just want to see if singing is your cup of tea, you’re welcome with us. Are you looking for a nice activity next to your study or work, lots of fun, and not least of all a lot of musicality? Want to come and sing in our choir? Our next open rehearsals are on Monday the 2nd and 9th of September 2024. This is during our regular rehearsal moments at 19:30 in the NU-building of the Vrije Universiteit, room 2 on the ground floor (big theater hall).
