THE YALE ALLEY CATS REPORT

(1) Programme
The A Cappella Society organised a host of activities for the group and this included a cross section of audience.
• 93.8FM Radio Interview
• Prime Time Morning Appearance and interview & performance
• Tan Tock Seng Lunchtime Concert
• Esplanade Concourse Performances (2 sets)
• 1-Night Concert at the Arts House
The estimated exposure rate for all the activities is approximated at 1,200 audience members and thousands of Radio / TV viewers. The society was also acknowledged at all of these shows.
(2) Concert
The concert was a sold-out success. The programme was neo-classical in nature and highly engaging and entertaining. Feedback from vocal sources said that whilst the concert was very enjoyable, the singing was good but was not comparable to teams from Harvard and other outstanding college groups. The overall feedback nonetheless was very positive overall for the concert.
The repertoire of pop, classic hits and Jazz tunes done in older and more current a cappella arrangement styles and coupled with the collegiate touch of an expanded barbershop group (sound) was well received.
(3) Tickets Sales
The concert was sold out and we hope to continue supporting such groups on their visits to Singapore.
(4) Production
The group was well rehearsed and was always mentally and physically ready for their next show. This showed a good level of professionalism from a college team, something that our local groups can emulate.
(5) Summary
All in all, the concert was a tremendous success. The audience at the concert was mainly made up of Yale Alumni members and some general public and from American & singing community. We are happy that we organised a show at Tan Tock Seng and The Esplanade which allowed the team to sing to the younger crowd (school holidays) as well as the older crowd.
