The Georgia Tech Glee Club is the oldest student organization on GT campus. According to a 1917 article of the campus newspaper the Technique, "The Glee Club was first started in 1906 and was composed of some eight or 10 men who would gather every afternoon under the Academic Building and practice."
Since that time, the Glee Club has been an outlet for countless Tech students to sing and to enjoy the rich tradition inherent in the group and the university. It has sung on USO tours, on the Ed Sullivan show, and on many tours around the city and around the world. It was even one of the first musical groups to be broadcast on live radio when it sang "Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech" along with the Georgia Tech Band in the 1920's.
Today, the Georgia Tech Glee Club is a unique men's a cappella group consisting of around 50 singers. In the last few years, it has sing in Hawaii, Washington, D.C., Carnegie Hall, and the UK, as well as dozens of public and private performances each semester. We produced our first studio recording album in 2006 for our 100th anniversary. The CD, entitled "Sing, Kindred Voices," can be purchased at the GT Bookstore.
Unlike many choral groups, we're extremely flexible. Our music spans all genres: classical, barbershop, rock, popular, folk, and experimental are all styles with which we're comfortable. We can sing for 10 minutes or 2 hours, with 4 people or 50. Abnormal is our way of life, and we wouldn't have it any other way.
