Encore Show Choir Fall 2026

Who we are!

The Duquesne University Encore Show Choir, known as just Encore, is the show choir that performs all around the local Pittsburgh area aiming to bring joy to the community! We are a large group of students with diverse majors, all brought together by our love of music and performance. We practice twice a week, on Tuesdays and Sundays. At the end of each semester, we have a large concert where we perform all our repertoire for anybody who wants to come see us! Additionally, we have two selected groups that perform an all-singing track or an all-dancing track. 

Why we're fundraising!

Your donation would keep the group running its day-to-day operations, as well as providing our students with rides to performances, music/performance tracks, and a custom shirt for the entire group to match.

In March of 2024, Encore hosted its first reunion! This reunion served as an event to bring Encore members and alumni together. We performed our current set list for the alumni to show how Encore has grown and evolved. Additionally, the alumni got to perform the “Irish Blessing”, a song that we have is a tradition for us to perform at our Friends & Family performances, with the group. This event was so successful that Encore won “Event of the Year” at the SOLSA awards, which is the first SOLSA award Encore ever won.

Encore supports students with a love for music who might not be able to express it through their majors. Encore provides a platform for singers and dancers to perform at a variety of different locations, on and off campus.
