The Yale Whiffenpoofs in Sacramento

Event Description

Join the Whiffenpoofs as they sing a public concert in Sacramento, California, as part of their October concert series!

About the Whiffs: Each year, 14 senior Yale men are selected to be in the Whiffenpoofs, the world's oldest and best known a cappella group. Made famous by their signature "Whiffenpoof Song," (which has since been covered by artists like Elvis Presley, Bing Crosby, and Rudy Vallee), the 'Whiffs' carry forward their century-old tradition each year with over two hundred performances in such venues as Carnegie Hall, Broadway's Lincoln Center, and the Rose Bowl. They have been featured on television shows such as NBC's The Sing Off, The West Wing, The Today Show, 60 Minutes, Gilmore Girls, Jeopardy!, Saturday Night Live, and most recently on the Season 4 finale of the hit television show Glee. Last year, the Whiffenpoofs sang for President Obama at the White House and toured to over twenty-five countries on six continents. You can learn more about them on their website - www.whiffenpoofs.com - and experience them performing on youtube!
