The Glee Club is the premier performance organization for the College and sings for most campus events. It has had the unique opportunity to perform with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, world-renowned singer Jessye Norman, and as part of the annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. celebration. With each performance, audiences are left in awe.
The Spelman College Glee Club is celebrating its centennial this year, marking a remarkable milestone in the institution’s rich musical history. For the past 100 years, this esteemed ensemble has captivated audiences with its soulful harmonies, showcasing the exceptional talent and dedication of Spelman’s students. As the oldest collegiate choir of African American women in the United States, the Glee Club has not only preserved the legacy of Black choral music but has also inspired generations of young women to find their voices and share their artistry with the world.
