Singing Cadets
From humble beginnings as the A&M College of Texas All-Male Glee Club formed in 1893, the Singing Cadets have performed all over Texas, the nation and the world.
Now in its 123rd touring season, the Singing Cadets will be performing concerts this year throughout Texas, the United States and the world.
The purpose of the Singing Cadets is to enhance the public relations of Texas A&M University through musical presentations as deemed appropriate by the director and to develop disciplined leaders of character as defined by the Singing Cadet Handbook. The four pillars of the Singing Cadets are Purpose, Unity, Spirit and Honor. Together, these four pillars have formed the solid foundation that has inspired and enabled our organization to succeed in carrying out its purpose for well over a century.
