释义 |
}} The Night Owls (also known as the "Owls") are the oldest continuous all-female a cappella group in the United States and are Vassar College's oldest a cappella group. The Night Owls are an all-female jazz a cappella group that performs a range of music from jazz standards to current pop hits to indie-folk music. HistoryThe Night Owls always perform dressed in all-black to respect the tradition of the group's founding. In the midst of the polio epidemic of 1942, sixteen intrepid female students escaped from their quarantined dorms late one night and snuck into the library basement. There they sang and serenaded sick classmates with their dulcet tones.[1] Performance HistoryThe group performs many times throughout Vassar's academic year including at final concerts in December and May, local fundraisers, joint concerts with other Vassar and non-Vassar a cappella groups, and Vassar events. More information about gigs can be found on their website and Facebook page. Discography
