Join a Practice, Performance or Competitive Quartet

Quartet singing is a foundational and celebrated aspect of women's a cappella Barbershop singing. Whether for practice, performance or competition, quartetting helps to fast-track musical skills, ensemble singing and stage presence. Great care is taken in matching voices within a quartet in respect to vocal range, transitions, and timbre. Competitive Quartets must register with Sweet Adelines International and their respective region. Quartets may compete annually at the regional level and internationally on a two year cycle. International Quartet Champions are designated as Queens of Harmony and receive a custom designed coronet. Sweet Adelines International and respective regions host annual workshops and musical education events specifically to support quartets.
