The Key Elements was founded in 1989 as a co-ed rock ’n roll a cappella group. We now perform innovative arrangements of songs in a variety of genres, including R&B, pop, and everything in between. We strive to not only provide Cornell with awe-inspiring music and concerts, but to also offer an opportunity for students of any background to pursue their musical passions, while creating lifelong friendships along the way.
Each academic year, we put on two themed concerts for the Fall Rocktoberfest and Spring Brave the Elements. Not only is a fun time guaranteed, but you're bound to discover at least one of your new-favorite songs after the show.
We are unparalleled in energy and musical range. Our diverse sound makes for always exciting and edgy performances each semester, and without fail. Our focus is making good music and having fun doing it!
