Welcome!
The Yale Glee Club is Yale’s principal undergraduate mixed chorus and oldest musical organization, having just concluded our 164th season.
We are excited to welcome another new class of wonderful incoming singers to join us for our 165th season! If you are a new Yale student who loves to sing or a returning Yale student who has not sung with us before, we’d love to see you at our auditions, which begin on Aug. 28. Learn more about our audition process, or complete an audition form and sign up for an audition time now!
Our upcoming season will include two domestic concert tours, joint concerts with the Harvard and Princeton choruses, collaborations with the Yale Philharmonia (the east coast premiere of a new oratorio by faculty composer Christopher Theofanidis), the Yale Concert Band (Susan Botti Vespers (walking in beauty)) and the Yale Symphony Orchestra (Garcia Requiem in d minor), premieres of exciting new choral works, and much more.
In recent seasons, the Glee Club has earned rave reviews in the national press, from The New York Times (“one of the best collegiate singing ensembles, and one of the most adventurous…an exciting, beautifully sung concert at Carnegie Hall”) to The Washington Post (“Under the direction of Jeffrey Douma, the sopranos - indeed, all the voices - sang as one voice, with flawless intonation…their treacherous semitones and contrapuntal subtleties became otherworldly, transcendent even”).
