Founded in 1875, the Men’s Glee Club (MGC) exemplifies the university’s dedication to tradition, artistic excellence, outreach and diversity. The MGC is available, by audition, to all students—regardless of major. The oldest student organization on campus, the MGC is also a credit-granting course and a prominent ensemble in the School of Music.
During its history, the Men's Glee Club has garnered worldwide accolades. Most notably, the group was unanimously declared “Choir of the World” in 1990 under the direction of Professor James Gallagher in Llangollen, Wales. The MGC was the first male chorus and the first ensemble from the United States to win the competition.
In the past decade, the MGC has represented The Ohio State University and the School of Music at numerous events. Notable among these appearances include concerts with the University Glee Club of NYC at the Lincoln Center, convention concerts for the Central Division of the American Choral Directors Association, Ohio Music Educators Association, Ohio Choral Directors Association, and national seminars of the Intercollegiate Male Choruses.
