150th Anniversary
Gala Weekend

November 15th-17th, 2024

Join us for a three-day celebration of the Glee Club’s past, present and future with a festival of singing, camaraderie and concerts!

The festival begins on November 15th with a performance in Richardson Auditorium by the unstoppable superstars of global a cappella - The King’s Singers, featuring a program of music curated specially for the 150th, and joined on stage by the Princeton University Glee Club for the world premiere of a new work by American composer Stacy Gibbs. 

Then on November the 16th at 5pm, we bring together a massed choir of Glee Clubbers past and present, for a Gala Concert which evokes the history of the choir, and which ushers in its future. This performance features the world premiere of “More to Live For” by Shruthi Rajasekar ’18, composed to be sung together by Glee Clubbers of all generations.

For alumni who would like to sing in our gala concert, as well as an informal sing of the Fauré Requiem on November 17th, please register HERE.
