University College Music Society

University College Music Society Founded in 1930, UCMS is dedicated to promoting a vibrant and inclusive atmosphere of music making at Univ.

Founded in 1930, the University College Music Society, or UCMS, exists to promote music within University College, Oxford. While it is run by a friendly and enthusiastic committee of Univites, members of other colleges are welcome to get involved! With events ranging from Master's Lodgings Concerts to Open Mic nights, and ensembles including Fidelio Orchestra and Kodaly Choir (run jointly with Mer

ton), there is something for everyone to get involved with! For more information about the society, groups or concerts, please feel free to contact us at [email protected]

And we have just had a celebratory Master’s Lodgings concert to mark the occasion.
We also bid a very fond farewell to The Master and Lady Crewe - we are incredibly grateful for all of their support over the past 12 years.
