The URJC Music Classroom is a space created for students with musical concerns, who want to continue their passion for music within the university. This is basically made up of four groups or workshops. The symphony orchestra, the choir, the choir for the elderly and the musical theater workshop. Occasionally other workshops are held, such as the modern song workshop.
