Performances
The UMD Treblemakers LOVE performing, because it gives them a chance to share their work with family, friends, fans, and the UMD community. During a normal school year, the UMD Treblemakers hold 1-2 performances a semester. Trebs rehearse three times a week in prepartion for these shows. Rehearsal tiem is spent practicing our arrangements and enhancing our sound. The music director leads the majority of rehearsals, providing members with specific notes about their performances when singing each song as a group. Rehearsal is a crucial aspect of Trebs, as this is where we are able to produce such amazing music! To see all our past performances, please visit our YouTube channel below.
This is a performance of "Evergreen" by Yebba, at our Spring concert in 2019. This song is also featured on our newest studio album, Currents!

Almost every year, the UMD Treblemakers compete in the ICCA's, more commonly known as the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella. This is a highly prestigious and compeition interantion a cappella compeition. Trebs have made it to the semifinals in their region EVERY year they have competed!
In preparation for the ICCA's, the UMD Treblemakers create an extensive set through 40+ hours of intense rehearsal. The group dedicates significant time to rehearsing choreography, music, and enhancing performability to put on a competitive set each year.

Gigs
Although COVID-19 has put a halt to in person performances, it has not stopped the UMD Treblemakers from participating in virtual gigs and performances for many different audiences. Over the recent holiday season, the UMD Treblemakers were able to share one of their virtually recorded music videos at Congressman Hoyer’s holiday party! Although they would have loved to perform live at the celebration, being able to share their music with a congressman who is a UMD alum along with his close family and friends was so exciting! In addition, the Trebs have put together another virtual music video that will be shared at an Elon University Make A Wish Foundation charity event! They are so honored to be included in such a special and important event, and they are looking forward to spreading joy and love with so many people during the virtual concert. The UMD Treblemakers are determined to continue performing and participating in future gigs, even if in a virtual setting, because they want to be able to share their love of music and love for each other with the world! Please see the Virtual Releases page to check out what we've been working on this semester.
