The National University of Singapore’s (NUS) Percussion Ensemble was first established in 2021 consisting of percussionists from the NUS Symphony Orchestra, NUS Wind Symphony, and the NUS Chinese Orchestra. The group was formed for NUSSO’s recorded production ‘Landscapes’, in an unprecedented collaboration between the three groups for a percussion ensemble performance featuring an in-house arrangement of ‘Forbidden Friendship’ from the 2010 movie How to Train Your Dragon.  

Today, the NUS Percussion Ensemble consists of brilliant veterans and juniors alike from NUSSO, NUSWS, and NUSCO, to strive for excellence in percussion music via diverse performance opportunities.
