The Madrigal Group was an early women's chorus at the University of Virginia. The group was formed in the fall of 1943 "in response to the demand for a chorus which would be open to women students in all the schools of the University."[1] The group collaborated many times with the Glee Club during the World War II years, and made a brief reappearance in the late 1950s before going on permanent hiatus.
