Friars (Musical Group) records, 1956-1993 (majority within 1963-1992)

0.4 linear feet

University of Michigan a capella octet formed in 1955, composed of members of the men's glee club. Collection consists of Topical files and photographs.

The records span the years 1956-1993; the bulk of the materials cover 1963-1992. The records are divided into two series: TOPICAL FILES and PHOTOGRAPHS.

The Topical Files (0.4 linear feet) are arranged alphabetically. The records are a good source for documenting the performances of the Friars. The "Performance Contract/Data Sheets" indicate the time and place of the performance, in addition to the amount paid to the Friars. The programs contain information on the eight members. Historical information can be gleaned from the promotional letters.

The Photographs (12 folders) are arranged in chronological order. Each folder contains at least one promotional black and white photograph used by the Friars for the particular academic year.
