Welcome to the website of the Engineering Music Society!
EMS provides a sociable environment for people who want to continue to play their instrument in an ensemble after finishing school. Students from ALL FACULTIES are welcome, and EMS has a policy of no auditions.
The club currently supports an orchestra, concert band, two stage bands and a choir. All ensembles rehearse weekly for a couple of hours in the evening. At the end of each semester we hold public concerts and also play at functions such as Discovery Day and Engineering Deans Honours.
Apart from music, the club has a strong social aspect to it. There are trips to the pub after every rehearsal, "beer and freddos" nights, BBQs, and a camp each semester.
To join EMS simply turn up to a rehearsal. Check out the How to Join section of the website for rehearsal days and times.

After much discussion, another item has been added to the diverse and ever expanding range of EMS merchandise... BOTTLE OPENERS!!
They are strong and sturdy, and are adequately sufficient at the difficult task of opening a nice cold bottle of beer (home-brewed, of course!).
At the very low price of $7, get yours from the office or an EMS event today!!! |
