As Harvard's oldest all-gender a cappella group, the Harvard Opportunes have been providing the Boston area with lively performances for over 40 years. The foremost acapella group at Harvard College, The Opportunes placed 2nd in the International Championship of Collegiate Acapella, and 1st out of all Mixed-Gender Ensembles. The Opportunes are known for their intricate six-to-eight-part harmonies as well as their stage presence and sense of humor. We love to entertain audiences of all ages in any setting, so feel free to reach out with any inquiries and requests!
The Harvard Opportunes performed at our EmpowHer event on Sunday October 22nd in Boston. They were sensational! Our guests were surprised and blown away by the experience. The performance set the tone for our cocktail party - it was powerful, wonderful. I highly recommend these very talented and friendly young singers to perform anywhere. It was such a pleasurable experience! Thank you everyone!!
I hired the Opportunes for a holiday reception for high-level staff members. They were professional, great at communicating with me prior to the event, and quite talented. I would hire them again.

The best thing about a cappella is that we can perform whenever, wherever. We don't need a load-in time, we don't need microphones –we don't even need a stage! Our performance is guaranteed to be entertaining to your guests of all ages, as we perform music from various generations and have a wide set-list to choose from. We are professional, punctual, and passionate about our performance, and we won't let you down.
Founded in 1980, we are Harvard's oldest (and boldest) co-ed a cappella group. Our wide repertoire ranges from the funky grooves of Stevie Wonder to the soulful R&B of John Legend, all the way to the spooky Americana of The Civil Wars and the upbeat pop of Demi Lovato. Catch us at one of our many events on campus and around the world, or book us today and we'll come to you!
Don't have a microphone? Not a problem. We are very low-tech, and can work with your needs.
