Looking back on our concerts in December 2022

For the first time, we recorded our December concerts in 2022 professionally! You can find a short teaser from our first concert in Zurich Conservatory on Youtube.

About Us

The University Orchestra Polyphonia Zürich is a symphony orchestra consisting of students, employees and alumni of the ETH Zürich and the University of Zürich. During each study semester we rehearse some pieces of classical orchestral literature and present them in our concert at the end of the semester.

If you are interested to join the orchestra for the spring semester 2023, you can find further information here. Currently, we are still looking for percussion, double bass, bassoon, trumpet, and french horn. Furthermore, specifically for the current project, we search for tuba. We are looking forward to hearing from you!

During the semester, we rehearse every Wednesday from 6pm to 9pm. You can find the exact rehearsal plan for the spring semester 2023 here.
