The Texas Tech University Men's Chorus (formerly the Tech Glee Club) was
established in 2000 by Dr. John Dickson as
a musical outlet for all Tech men who enjoy the camaraderie of choral
singing. Under the direction of Dr. John
Hollins, the Men's Chorus performs music reflecting a wide variety
of styles, including classical works, spirituals, folksongs, barbershop,
jazz standards, opera choruses, and TTU songs. The ensemble has grown
steadily over the past five years and has gained recognition in the
university and the community as an exciting and spirit-filled choral
organization. Jerry Blackstone, conductor of the University of Michigan
Glee Club, praised the chorus, stating "The men have a warm, beautiful
sound, and it's obvious that they're having a good time." In 2003, the
ensemble served as the opera chorus in TTU Music Theatre's production of
Mozart's Die Zauberflote. Last year the Men's Chorus sang
at several community events and was featured, along with the Women's
Chorale, at the TTU College of Visual and Performing Arts Gala
presentation "A Night on Broadway," at the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony
Center in Dallas.
