Berklee’s Ensemble Department proudly presents this year’s Ensemble Festival, a vibrant, multi-day celebration spotlighting the heartbeat of Berklee: students collaborating, experimenting, and creating transformative musical moments together. With over 350 ensembles active throughout the year, Berklee offers more performance opportunities than any music college in the world. Come experience the talent and diversity of our students bringing Berklee’s campus to life with an inspiring lineup of more than 350 performances in 7 venues, resulting in 8 days of live music.
Taking place November 24th through December 6th in the Fenway Room, David Frenz Recital Hall, 1A & 1W Berk Hall, Rooms B08 & B16, the Ensemble Festival highlights every corner of our musical community. From R&B, jazz, and hip-hop to Latin pop, global fusion, chamber music, rock jam bands, and innovative cross-genre projects, these performances reflect the creativity and dedication pulsing through campus each semester.
This festival is more than a series of concerts. It’s a living portrait of Berklee’s collective artistry. Each ensemble represents weeks of listening, rehearsing, building trust, taking risks, and discovering what happens when musicians uplift one another. Whether you’re performing or attending, this is where inspiration multiplies and where new ideas, new collaborations, and new confidence take shape.
All students, faculty, families, friends, and members of the Boston community are invited to attend. Students are encouraged to bring loved ones, classmates, collaborators, and supporters to experience the magic live. These performances become memories that shape artistic journeys for years to come.
Come support the artists who make Berklee extraordinary and experience the energy that only live ensemble performance can bring.
