Welcome!
A word "from the podium" — June/July 2025
May: A month when we take time to put away materials from the academic year and spend time reflecting on the accomplishments of months past. The MGC Sesquicentennial celebration was successful on every level. I had so much fun, I wish I could be here for the bicentennial.
June: We put the finishing touches on the 2025–2026 MGC calendar. Maintaining the momentum is a goal, knowing full well that not every year can (or should) be the same. In January we will travel to South Bend, Indiana to share a concert with the Notre Dame MGC. Other trips and details will be posted on the MGC pages. Stay tuned for more information.
July: This is music selection month. We choose the repertoire for the upcoming season. Choosing music, ordering music, studying music — all in anticipation of the 2025–2026 academic year. This is also the month when the Men's Glee Club officers begin making their plans to welcome the new edition of MGC.
August: It’s go time! Auditions, rosters, meeting new members, rehearsals. The excitement of the new school year. Check our site to sign up for an audition time. Our first rehearsal is August 29 at 4:10 p.m.
In the meantime, enjoy the summer. Laugh much and do your best to make memories. And when you plan a party, remember the MGC philosophy — “The key to carrying on is not getting carried away.”
Respectfully,
Robert J. Ward, Director of Choral Studies
MGC conductor
