Oshkosh Collegiate Composers (OCC)

Oshkosh Collegiate Composers (OCC) As student-composers we share our views, muse, and news! Oshkosh Student Composers meets biweekly in composition seminar at UWO.

Our composition teachers provide us with the opportunity to learn about various aspects of the vocation of composer through guest composer presentations and/or relevant topics of discussion. We students also have the chance to learn from each other as we talk about the process of our own composing. Our first composers' recital, organized and run primarily by student-composers, will be held this December (see events).

Composition students wrote a set of creative outer space-themed pedagogical works that focused on particular skills. “Moon Ooze,” anyone? Great to collaborate piano class!
