They are one of the oldest collegiate singing organizations in the world and one of the most treasured Aggie traditions.

Besides traveling throughout the state of Texas performing an average of 65 concerts per year, the Singing Cadets have also spread the Spirit of Aggieland around the globe. The group has toured to Romania, Mexico, Germany, England, Switzerland, Hungary, Australia, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Wale, Scotland, South Africa and China.
The Singing Cadets have performed for every living president as well as other distinguished individuals such as Mikhail Gorbachev and many foreign dignitaries. They have held concerts in places such as Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, and Saint Paul’s Cathedral.

The Texas A&M University Women’s Chorus was founded in 1979 by Patricia P. Fleitas. Its members consist of approximately fifty talented young women who are dedicated to choral excellence and possess a true passion for music. These women take pride in themselves and their organization as they represent Texas A&M University across Texas, the nation, and abroad.

The Texas A&M Women’s Chorus is so much more than just a way to share music for its members. They are a group built on fostering not only musical excellence but also leadership and sisterhood. They have their own traditions that make them a fun and unique group on campus. They hold numerous social events to encourage ladies to get to know one another, and because of this social aspect many girls create lifelong friendships and have an even better musical experience.
