Then, guests will be seated to hear a full performance presented by the Princeton Nassoons. The bar will remain open while the students perform their tour set.


After the performance, stick around for dessert, coffee, networking, and conversation. You will hear from the Princeton Nassoons and Cape Symphony about opportunities to support their organizations.


This event is being held as a collaborative fundraiser between Cape Symphony and the Princeton Nassoons. All proceeds from the event will be split evenly amongst both organizations.

Princeton Nassoons

nassoons.com

The Nassoons, a low-voice a cappella group founded back in 1941, are Princeton University's oldest a cappella ensemble and widely regarded as one of the finest collegiate performance groups. Founded as an a cappella alternative to the Princeton Glee Club in the late 1930's, the Nassoons won a place in the hearts of their first audience at the annual Princeton-Yale concert and haven't looked back since. As a stop on their annual concert tour, Cape Symphony is excited to present this outstanding a cappella group to audiences on Cape Cod!
