I am a member of the MIT Logarhythms, a men's a capella singing group
comprised of MIT undergraduate students. Our repertoire is based upon
barbershop, but also includes madrigals, spirituals and modern. Aside
from our usual concert activities (hosting other groups, traveling to
other schools), we usually plan a week-long tour during our spring
break. The duration allows us to travel further than we normally would
during the school term. Last year, we sang our way down to Texas. This
year, we are looking to head north, into Canada.
The success of our tour, depends in large part upon our itinerary.
Although we do enjoy dropping in unannounced at other Universities, a
certain amount of scheduled engagements is necessary to convince
potential benefactors of the worthiness of their contribution.
Therefore, we are eager to hear from organizations that might wish to
have us perform for them sometime in the period March 23-31.
Our program is quite flexible, but usually includes a mixture of songs,
stories and jokes to keep our audience laughing and entertained. In the
past, we've performed at colleges, high schools, restaurants, retirement
homes, et al. After our performance at a high school, we'd be more than
happy to hold a short discussion about life at MIT, for the benefit of
prospective students. We've also had a very good time performing for
high school music classes, after which the chorus would often get up and
sing for us.
Our proposed itinerary will be taking us north from Boston, into New
Hampshire, Maine, and then Canada. Upstate New York and Vermont are
possibilities as well. We strive to perform free of charge, although
donations, especially of room and board, are greatly appreciated. If
you are interested in having the Logarhythms (or Logs, for short)
perform for you during March 23-31 (or other dates), respond to me
