Made up of about twenty clarinetists, the Truman Clarinet Choir rehearses once a week during clarinet studio class and performs at least once a semester.  The ensemble plays literature specifically composed for the clarinet choir, as well as transcriptions of well-known works by composers like Mozart, Bach, Debussy, and Rimsky-Korsakov.

In 2007, the Truman Clarinet Choir commissioned and premiered a new piece by Dr. Robert Martin for the Truman New Music Festival.  Recently, a new clarinet choir piece entitled The Shaman Speaks, which was composed by Dr. Vivian Fung, music faculty at Juilliard, was premiered by the ensemble at the 2009 Truman New Music Festival.  The group also performs for the community, including concerts at local elementary schools and assisted living centers.  To join the Truman Clarinet Choir or schedule a performance, contact Dr. Jesse Krebs
