The school is organized for private and group instruction. The University singers, the orchestra, and a number of other groups are composed of students in the school and others interested in the work. Each year the chorus and orchestra present several concerts as well as a comic operetta and band recitals. A series of student artist recitals and cooperation with the university committee in the Sunday evening musicals are also a part of the work of this department. Page 18
