Magic City Chorus members had a very memorable time at the Sweet Adelines International Competition in Las Vegas this month!

What’s an international competition? Let’s ask Wikipedia:

The Sweet Adelines International Competitions are the annual global championships for women’s barbershop harmony a cappella singing – in quartets and choruses – for members of Sweet Adelines International (SAI) and have been held annually between September and November since 1947. They are now the largest women’s singing competition in the world with over 8000 participants at the 2014 convention. There are two competitions for choruses (the international championships and the “Harmony Classic” for smaller choruses), and two competitions for quartets (the international championships and the “Rising Star” for young singers). Currently, the first three of these competitions are held together and form the Sweet Adelines International Convention. Over the course of competition history, the most successful chorus has been Melodeers Chorus from Chicago with seven championship titles, and the most successful quartet singer was Connie Noble who won with four separate quartets. MAXX Factor from Baltimore holds the record for highest quartet score, and Rönninge Show Chorus from Stockholm for highest ever chorus score.
