Join two of the university’s oldest musical ensembles – the tenor/bass Men’s Glee Club, and the soprano/alto Women’s Glee Club as they present a varied and spirited program under the baton of Daniel Shafer. Men’s Glee Club remains the oldest musical performing group on campus. It was first organized in 1890, and then transformed by Hugh Hodgson in 1926. Women’s Glee Club was founded in the mid-1920s

The Hodgson Singers spring concert will feature Morten Lauridsen’s “Lux Aeterna,” a multi-movement choral/orchestral work of great reassurance and lyricism that is set to Latin texts from the Requiem Mass, Te Deum, O Nata Lux, and Veni, Sancte Spiritus, all of which ruminate on themes of light, a universal symbol of illumination at all levels – spiritual, artistic, and intellectual.
