This Orientation Week, join Duelly Noted for two fun and diverse concerts!
On Wednesday, August 29 at 8:00p.m. in Wellin Hall, Duelly will perform a short set in the Orientation preview concert.
On Friday, August 31 at 8:00p.m. in Well Hall, Duelly will present Orientation the Musical: 4 — Dark Side Story. This fun performance will include even more songs and moves.
We'll be holding auditions for interested singers on Saturday, September 1, and Sunday, September 2. Sign up for an audition time in Opus I. Come prepared with a verse and a chorus of a song (a cappella, of course!) and be ready to have some fun and be wacky!
]]>Duelly Noted's members were also treated to enthralling stories from alumni including a story from the founder of The Buffers, Hamilton's oldest a cappella group (founded in 1952), and anecdotes of singing in the shower with Simon and Garfunkel. The singers had an especially proud and moving moment when they brought the president of the college, Joan Hinde Stewart, to tears in a private performance of the timeless Sinatra classic "The Way You Look Tonight."
Cheers to another successful Duelly weekend on the Hill!

Members of Duelly Noted on tour in Kinnelon, N.J.Duelly Noted has arrived back on the hill after completing our second annual concert tour over winter break!
Three of the performances on the four-day tri-state tour were held in the hometowns of current members: Queensbury High School in Queensbury, N.Y., home of Madison Malone Kircher ’14; Newtown Congregational Church in Newtown, Conn., home of Andrew Nichols ’14; and Our Lady of the Magnificat Church in Kinnelon, N.J., home of Mackenzie Leavenworth ’15. We also performed in a Thursday evening concert alongside a cappella groups at Union College in Schenectady, N.Y.
Each hour-long concert highlighted a range of vocal styles and fun choreography. Duelly Noted’s diverse repertoire often features many "oldies" including "Why Do Fools Fall In Love," "The Way You Look Tonight," and "Who Loves You" as well as Disney classics "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" and "Part of Your World”. The set was rounded out with several pop songs including "Lay All Your Love on Me," "Thriller," and "Zombie Jamboree."
The free performances also helped raise money for local charities. Enthusiastic audiences in Newtown and Kinnelon donated a combined amount of more than $800 in cash plus several bags of canned goods to benefit their towns' food pantries.
