\"All-Sing<\/a>KNOXVILLE — Students will get the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, jumping this week with this year’s All-Sing competition, a campus tradition of more than 75 years.<\/p>\n

The 2010 All-Sing will be held at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 4, and 7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 5, in Cox Auditorium in the Alumni Memorial Building.<\/p>\n

This year’s theme is “Tik-Tok on the Clock\u2026All-Sing Never Stops.” The competition includes 21 student organizations performing songs from “Annie Get Your Gun,” “Aladdin,” “Legally Blonde,” “Cats,” “Les Mis\u00e9rables” and hits from The Beatles and Motown.<\/p>\n

Divisional and overall awards will be given as well as awards for best female and male soloists.<\/p>\n

The competition debuted in 1932 as “Song-Fest” and has been a campus institution ever since. Song-Fest began as an initiative by the Young Men’s Christian Association and the All Students’ Club as a singing competition to familiarize students, faculty and the community with songs of the times.<\/p>\n

Tickets for Thursday night are $5 for UT students, $8 for UT faculty and staff and $10 for the general public. Tickets for Friday night are $10 for UT students, $13 for UT faculty and staff and $15 for the general public. Tickets may be purchased in the Central Ticket Office at (865) 974-3381 or through Tickets Unlimited at (865) 656-4444 or http:\/\/www.knoxvilletickets.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The All-Sing competition is presented by All Campus Events (ACE). ACE is a component of the Central Program Council, which represents seven committees under the Office of Student Activities. The goal of this student-driven organization is to plan campus events that have become longstanding UT traditions. Each year ACE organizes Volunteer Challenge, Homecoming, All-Sing and Carnicus. For more information, contact the Office of Student Activities at (865) 974-5455 or ace@utk.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n
