- The Weill Cornell Music and Medicine Chorus is the new vocal ensemble at Music and Medicine. Its more than 40 members include students, faculty, and staff from Tri-i-affiliated institutions and other New York City medical colleges, who make up about 80% of the group. Last year, the chorus debuted alongside the Music and Medicine Orchestra in a sold-out performance of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony. Both ensembles are proud to collaborate with conservatory students from The Juilliard School, Manhattan School of Music, and NYU Steinhardt, as well as skilled freelance musicians and community members who share our passion for music. Tonight, the chorus is thrilled to present its first independent concert as it grows into a space where medically inclined musicians can meet, make music, express their creativity, and bring music to the Weill Cornell community.
