The Whiffenpoofs perform jazz-based arrangements of songs ranging from traditional folk to modern pop. They perform a cappella in the time-honored barbershop style, switching solos with each song. The Whiffenpoofs are invited to perform at the White House every year, and we hope you will enjoy the supreme harmony of their 14 voices!
＜What is the Whiffenpoofs? ＞Whiffenpoofs
The Whiffenpoofs, the world's oldest collegiate a cappella group, is selected each year from among the fourth-year students at Yale University, a prestigious Ivy League school in the U.S. In 1909, five fourth-year students gathered as a quartet at Mory's, a famous bar in Yale, for their weekly performance. The Whiffs, which began in 1909 as a quartet of five fourth-year students who gathered weekly to sing at Mory's, Yale's famous bar, has become one of the most traditional activities on campus.
＜History of Whiffen's Arrival in Japan
The Whiffenpoofs began in 1982 with the invitation of the Whiffenpoofs to Japan, and the committee office, host families, and all other volunteers have continued to work with the Whiffenpoofs.
The grassroots effort to create an opportunity for young people to grow into true bridges between the U.S. and Japan has become one of the most traditional of the Whiffenpoofs' tours around the world.
