The United States Naval Academy Men’s Glee Club is the largest

it has appeared in major national events, most notably the Presidential

Inaugural Galas and the Kennedy Center Honors. Network television

programs on which the Men’s Glee Club has appeared include The

Today Show (NBC), Christmas in Washington (NBC and TNT), and

Good Morning, America (ABC). The Men’s Glee Club has performed

masterpieces of the choral repertoire with the Naval Academy Women’s

Glee Club and the Annapolis Symphony Orchestra, including Handel’s

Messiah, Orffs Carmina Burana, Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, and the

Requiems of Brahms, Mozart, and Verdi. During the past four years, the
Men’s Glee Club has presented more than two hundred performances in

California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts,

New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, and Virginia. 

Outside the United States, the ensemble has performed in England, Italy, and

Belgium.

John Barry Talley conducts not only the Naval Academy’s Men’s

Glee Club, but also the combined Men’s and Women’s Glee Club and

Protestant and Catholic Midshipmen Choirs as professor of music and

chair of the Academy’s musical activities department. He joined the

Academy faculty in 1971 and since then has conducted more than four

thousand performances, more than one hundred of which have been

nationally televised. Talley established the Women’s Glee Club and the

Chapel Chorale and founded the Academy’s Distinguished Artist Series,

the Spring Oratorio, the annual Messiah telecasts, and the Winter

Musical. Talley holds the doctor of music degree in conducting from the

Peabody Institute of Johns Hopkins University and undergraduate

degrees in conducting and piano from the Oberlin College Conservatory

of Music. A native of Kentucky, he maintains and manages several farms
