Today, we have almost 50 singing members on stage. We are
a high-performance chorus who actively works to promote the art of
barbershop music. We periodically schedule coaching sessions with both
regional and international coaches.
Our chorus is blessed with an array of
talented ladies who help make us successful. Our fantastic
Director, Marcia O'Neil, has the energy and
technical knowledge to bring out the best in us as performers. Likewise,
the amazing vocal ability of Eva Kaplan improves our singing – and she makes
it fun as well. Our section leaders and choreography team add to our vocal
and visual presentation. We are also fortunate to have members from
registered quartets adding their strength to our chorus. Our members are
dedicated to performing and spreading our love of music throughout the
area. We are a close group of friends in harmony, and we welcome visitors
at any time. It is our goal to share an appreciation for barbershop music
as we perform the best vocal and visual product that we are capable of
producing. We strive constantly to grow, while remaining the warm, friendly
group of ladies who bring joy to each other, as well as to others.
