APOLLO CLUB, THE. American, Reel. In the 18th century, New York City's Apollo Society was one of the first organizations to devote itself to musical culture. Over time, Apollo Clubs, often devoted to sponsoring male choruses, sprang up in many other cities, including Boston, Chicago and Minneapolis, all existing when Ryan's Mammoth Collection was published. Similarly, Brooklyn's Apollo Club was established in 1878. At least one group called itself the Apollo Club Minstrels (from an 1886 clipping in the Minstrel Show Collection, Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center, Univ. of Texas). Given the Boston connections of many of the Ryan titles, it may be a good guess the Boston organization is the one honoured by the title (see note for "annotation:Hiawatha").
