Purdue Varsity Glee Club Concert

On Saturday, February 4 at 2:00 p.m., the Purdue Varsity Glee Club will be performing in the Merillat Centre for the Arts. PVGC members have proudly served as ambassadors of Purdue University for more than 125 years. Founded in 1893, this ensemble has performed for campus, community, state, national, and international events, including six U.S. presidential inaugurations, a meeting with Queen Elizabeth II, appearances on The Tonight Show and The Ed Sullivan Show, and performances in Carnegie Hall and Radio City Music Hall.

This dynamic musical troupe of 68 young men employs a versatile repertoire, including gospel, vocal jazz, traditional hymns, swing, contemporary hits, romantic ballads, classical choral selections, barbershop, folk melodies, patriotic standards, familiar opera choruses, country, and novelty tunes, and utilizes small groups and outstanding soloists to further enhance each show. The Glee Club shares a sound all its own through one-of-a-kind arrangements in tailor-made performances for audiences of all ages. HU’s own Treblemakers who will be joining PVGC onstage for part of the performance.

Tickets are for sale online through the HU Box Office. Adults: $15, Seniors: $12, Students: $10
