The following was submitted by the Tufts University Beelzebubs:

As part of a year-long commemoration of its 50th anniversary, the Tufts University Beelzebubs (“Bubs”) and Beelzebubs Alumni Association (BAA) will host The Beelzebubs History Concert on Saturday, May 25, at 7:00 p.m., at Medford’s historic Chevalier Theater (http://chevaliertheater.com). This reunion concert of a cappella music provides a showcase for alumni extending back to the organization’s inception in 1963 and will also feature a set by this year’s undergraduate Bubs.

In addition to inviting the family and friends of all Bubs undergraduates and alumni, the BAA welcomes fans of the Bubs, and of a cappella music in general, to attend. The concert, which affords alumni the opportunity to reconvene with former group mates and revisit their glory days as undergraduate Bubs, promises a lively collection of performances by over 200 singers who graduated from Tufts over the past half-century. Assembled into five-year “eras” representing the 50-year continuum of the renowned men’s a cappella group, these ensembles will perform in chronological order, and will be followed by the final Boston-area performance of the 2012-13 Beelzebubs.

To defray costs, there is a modest $10 admission for The Beelzebubs History Concert. Reserved-seating tickets are available on the evening of the show at the Chevalier Theater, 30 Forest Street, Medford, Mass., or online (no additional charge) at http://bubshistoryconcert.bpt.me. For ticket information, call 800-838-3006.
