Collegium Musicum TTh: 5:30-6:20

Picture
Collegium Musicum is the early music ensemble of Kansas State University. It is the only K-State ensemble whose membership includes students, faculty, and members of the Manhattan community.  The ensemble specializes in medieval, renaissance and baroque music. Collegium Musicum allows students to work closely with faculty artists in order to learn the subtle intricacies of historical performance practices of this unique, rich repertoire.
