All About Choruses
A Blend with Friendship is Our Creed
They came for the music and stayed for the friendship.
As more and more women discover the joy of singing in a
barbershop chorus, they find that the bonds that develop
over a shared love of barbershop harmony can extend beyond
the boundaries of age, occupation, race, etc. Women from 9
to 90 have formed bonds of friendship that last many, many
years.
As members of Harmony, Inc., women are offered a chance
to participate in the development of the chorus and Harmony,
Inc. by volunteering at various levels within the chorus, at
the area level or at the international level. From music
administration, performance planning, membership services,
outreach programs, show production, quarteting, directing –
opportunities to contribute, grow and develop abound.
Choruses are active in their communities by performing at
various venues including musical shows, fundraising events,
community outreach programs, social gatherings, holiday
caroling and very successful Singing Valentines programs.
On an annual basis each chorus has an opportunity to join
with other choruses in their respective areas at an Area
Contest & Convention. Education workshops are available to
give members an opportunity to polish their skills as well
as time to socialize and sing with members from all over the
area. Highlights are the Quartet Contest and Chorus Contest
where qualifying quartets and choruses are eligible to
participate in the International Contest where the top
choruses will be recognized.
