Schola Cantorum (for 'School of Singers' ) was founded in 1957 by Professor of Music Richard Brothers. Originally only 32 voices, Schola Cantorum quickly flourished under his baton. In 1962, Schola Cantorum became the first American choir to win the coveted first prize—The Guido d'Arezzo Award—at the prestigious International Polyphonic Competition in Arezzo, Italy.〔John F.

Woolley, ''The American Presidency Project''.〕〔Northwest Arkansas Times, (), ''University Chorus Wins International Laurels'', August 25, 1962〕 In honor of its achievement, Schola Cantorum soon after appeared on NBC TV's "Today Show" and performed for U.S. President John F. Kennedy in the White House Rose Garden.〔John F. Kennedy, (), ''Remarks to University of Arkansas Schola Cantorum'', September 4, 1962 - Online by John F.
