Local Chorus Takes Medals In Regional Contest

The Women of Note Chorus was victorious once again in regional competition, taking home two medals at the Region 9 Sweet Adelines International Chorus Competition on April 20 in Daytona Beach.

This is the 10th year in a row that the chorus has received two medals for its competition performance. This year’s competition was especially exciting as the chorus welcomed six new members onto the competition stage. This exceptional women’s a cappella barbershop chorus, with 43 members on stage and competing against choruses two to three times its size, excelled with another impressive performance, capturing third place in the regional mid-size chorus division and fourth overall.

In the meantime, the chorus ends the season volunteering at SunFest again this year in West Palm Beach and is gearing up for the 2013-14 season that will include a youth workshop, a holiday show in December and additional performances throughout South Florida.

The award-winning Women of Note Chorus is a chapter of Sweet Adelines International, a nonprofit music education association for women. Made up of teachers, nurses, lawyers, legal assistants, bookkeepers, artists, business owners and homemakers, among others, the Women of Note delights audiences with four-part a cappella harmony, innovative choreography and dazzling costumes.

The Women of Note holds open rehearsals and welcomes any woman who loves to sing and wants to have fun while making new friends. The chorus rehearses every Monday night at Palm Beach Central High School in Wellington, at the corner of Forest Hill Blvd. and Lyons Road.
