Join us for a festive evening of a cappella music by The Yale Alley Cats, the world-renowned singing group from Yale University, making music around the world since their founding back in 1943.
About The Yale Alley Cats:
Yale’s classiest a cappella group, the Cats have created over 400 original arrangements from jazz standards to Motown, from timeless oldies to contemporary chart-toppers. We’ve released several dozen albums, held seventy-nine annual Champagne Jamborees, and performed for public figures such as President Barack Obama, her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Martha Stewart, and Jay Leno. In true Cat fashion, as the first Yale a cappella group to tour internationally, we bring our unique brand of refined TTBB harmonies, stylistic expertise, and witty charm to destinations around the world. In our 80th season, with tours to Hawaii, China, Switzerland, and South Africa in the works, there has truly never been a better time to be a member of the Alley Cat family. Join this storied tradition, and share with us an incredible experience of history, unforgettable friendship, travel, and — in the words of Aretha Franklin — “Mm-mmm delicious” music! And remember, like those who came before you have learned: once a Cat, always a Cat.
About the music:
All arranged by current or former Alley Cats, reflects both our tradition and diversity. It has grown over our 80 years to include a mix of everything from the Temptations and Michael Jackson to Sam Smith and Alicia Keys. We add modern pieces while staying true to our roots in jazz standards from the likes of Gershwin, Ellington, and Porter. Our complex arrangements and acknowledged musicality allow us to perform for any audience, from ambassadors to elementary schoolers, making for an always exciting Alley Cat experience.
