Waseda University Glee Club

 

Waseda University Glee Club was established in 1907, for the purpose of performing the Waseda University school song. Since then it has grown in size to the current largest male chorus student club in Japan. Apart from their quarterly concerts, Waseda Glee perform at a variety of events including Waseda entrance ceremonies, Sou-kei-sen, and the 100 km hike. Last year, well-known musician Kazumasa Oda was a special guest for their 100th anniversary concert and this year, Glee made a special tour of Brazil to commemorate 100 years of Japanese immigration to Brazil. Waseda University Glee Club is one of the most active student clubs at Waseda.

 

Sobre o Waseda Glee Club

 

Waseda Glee club nasceu em 1907 com o objetivo de cantar o hino da Universidade. Hoje é considerado o maior coral masculino do país. Além de quatro concertos oficiais por ano, o coral ainda se apresenta nas cerimômias de ingresso, em jogos de Baseball, maratonas e outros eventos da faculdade. Em comemoração dos seus 100 anos de existência o coral contou com a participação do cantor Oda Kazumasa.
