Howdy!

My name is Jessie DiCarlo and I am serving as the Century Singers President. Century Singers is the 80-voice mixed choir of Texas A&M University and is directed by Jess Wade. Last spring semester was an exciting time for us as we celebrated our 40^thanniversary and traveled to England for a concert tour. This past fall we performed Mendellsohn's Elijah, and this spring we toured in Texas and finished with our Spring Concert. 

For the past three years, we have been in the Commons, but we have just relocated to the basement of the Memorial Student Center! We are thrilled to be back in our original home. Feel free to come visit us at our office or find us at the Resource Tables at the New Student Conferences this summer. 

We audition new members for every voice part at the start of each semester. The auditions for next fall will occur during the first three days of classes – August 27^th to August 29^th –  in the Choral Activities Office. The audition consists of singing a few warm-ups, My Country, ‘Tis of Thee, and a couple of short sight-reading exercises. This is all done with our incredible director. To set up an audition time, just call us around audition time at 979-845-5974 or stop by our office.

Thank you for visiting our website! Feel free to look around more and find information on our choir and its performances, our director, our officers, and more. To me, Century Singers is much more than a university choir. Over the past three years, it has become a family away from home and a much appreciated break from classes. We provide opportunities each week to hang out, eat, watch movies, and just have fun with fellow Century Singers. We also have an overnight retreat each semester which we encourage all members to attend! To sum it up:

"A lot of the music a choir makes come out of the fellowship they have together. Music is not just something we all do together in rehearsal; it comes from our hearts and souls. The music an organization makes comes from its heart and its soul, or it is not music." – Bob Jarvis, First President

If you have any questions, you can call 979-845-5974 or come by the Choral Activities Office. You can also e-mail me at jessie.dicarlo@gmail.com. I would love to talk with you more about our wonderful choir!

Gig 'em!
