Of an amateur nature and mostly made up of students, both the orchestra and the choir focus on music interpretation from the educational viewpoint.
Set up in 1947, the Choir of University of Valencia is the oldest in Spain. Its conductor is Constantino Martínez Orts. It has 100 mixed voices and rehearsals are held twice a week from September to June. Auditions are held the first fortnight in October and no previous music knowledge is requested.
The symphonic Orchestra has 70 musicians under the age of 27 and is conducted by Cristóbal Soler. A rehearsal is held on a weekly basis from September to June.

Dependent on the General Foundation of University, this special Trust was created with the aim of promoting creative activities in plastic arts or any other art expressions among the university community.
The donation by Jesús A. Martínez Guerricabeitia and his wife in July 1999 increased the contemporary art collection of University of Valencia in a significant way. The collection includes more than 100 paintings and 300 graphic pieces with a marked social content. Some works are noteworthy: Anzo, Arroyo, Canogar, Equipo Crónica, Genovés, Villalba i Vostell, among others. For exhibition purposes –one of the most relevant 20th century collections owned by a Spanish university- the Trust has a dedicated exhibition room, the Martínez Guerricabeitia Hall, on University Street. The Foundation manages and disseminates the collection with a view to raising an interest in contemporary art amongst university members and for the institution to open its doors to critical creativeness.
The Trust also grants awards and organises different activities. In order to accomplish this target, economic funds are allowed for, with an annual contribution by Mr. Jesús A. Martínez Guerricabeitia and additional contributions made after the signing of the institution's protocol. The Trust organises the Martínez Guerricabeitia Biennale, an exhibition of a small number of art pieces selected by art critics and galleries. The Trust selects the most interesting works, which are then purchased by University, thus becoming part of its heritage.
Each year the Martínez Guerricabeitia Trust broadens the range of activities. In this respect, the emphasis is not only placed on the preservation, exhibition, and research on their own collections but also on the in-depth analysis of today’s art. The Trust also organises optional credit courses on art, politics and thought, and documentation and research applied to humanities. The courses are targeted at students of history of art or other related disciplines.

University of Valencia has its own publishing house whose objective is to provide the university community with educational materials (textbooks, atlases, maps, and teaching materials in general) and to disseminate the results of research carried out in University in the different disciplines. Another paramount objective is the promotion of the social side of University and the dissemination of academic knowledge through specialised collections for scientific circulation and other works for the promotion of critical thinking and the exchange of ideas.
With a view to meeting the objectives, University of Valencia Publications has a series of collections which range from academic works to dissemination books, such as the collection Educació with textbooks and teaching texts; Oberta (research); the collections Honoris Causa and Paranimf, which pay homage to outstanding figures with academic or civic significance, and other more specialised works from different disciplines aimed at developing critical thinking and discussion, like Biblioteca Lingüística Catalana, Estètica&Crítica, Fonts Històriques and Assaig.
The three collections launched last year are now consolidated: Breviaris, consisting of finely published small-sized books, is dedicated to classical and contemporary assays. Especially significant texts are published with a literary and documentary value as an example of critical thinking and intellectual freedom, as per the genre’s best tradition; Història i Memòria del Franquisme, intended to contribute to recovering the historic memory of one of the darkest periods in our recent past, and the collection Biografías, on relevant figures in contemporary culture, intellectual biographies as an approach to the thinking and life experience of outstanding representatives of the world of ideas, from our perspective and taking into account their historic background.
University Publications also publishes collections jointly with private and public publishers, for instance Feminismos, with Ediciones Cátedra and the Women’s Institute; Frónesis, with Ediciones Cátedra; the collections Propuestas and Drets Humans, with Tirant lo Blanch; Sense Fronteres, with Edicions Bromera; El Món de les Nacions, with Afers Publishers; Aldea Global, with Barcelona’s Autonomous University, University Jaume I, and University Pompeu Fabra; the collection Treball Social with Nau Llibres; Filosofia. Las propuestas en sus textos, Editorial Marfil, and La Nau Solidària, with the South-North Trust.
The university publishing house also distributes all the published works of the university centres and departments, and manages the CD-rom publication of doctorate theses read in University of Valencia. The collections are completed by general publications, of an institutional and academic nature. These include the academic year opening lectures and singular books connected to University of Valencia.
On a yearly basis, an updated catalogue is published with the existing collections, free of charge and also available on their website.
