Far above the busy humming of the bustling Reunion 2019, more than 300 Cornell Glee Club voices – spanning eight decades of Cornell history – stood on the Bailey Hall stage June 7 and sang the iconic, seven-part “Ave Maria” by Franz Biebl.
The Glee Club – Cornell’s oldest student organization, celebrating 150 years this year – honored the late Thomas A. Sokol, professor emeritus of music, who died April 28. It was Sokol who brought the arrangement to the U.S. from Europe nearly a half-century ago.
