Dynamic barbershop singers dedicated to musical excellence, education and performance

Emerald City Chorus members can attest to the fact that dreams do come true!
In late 2006 we envisioned a vibrant and thoroughly motivated chorus with new goals and visions. Most of all we wanted
to have fun! As we come together each week for rehearsal, we experience wonderful camaraderie, the best possible musical education
and the exhilarating feeling of singing one of America's original art forms, barbershop harmony. Goosebumps have been
known to appear on many occasions!
The membership of Emerald City currently stands
at 41 and growing. We are chartered as a chapter of Sweet Adelines International.
Sweet Adelines International is a worldwide organization
of women singers committed to advancing the musical art form of barbershop harmony through education and performances. This
independent, nonprofit music education association is one of the world's largest singing organizations for women. "Harmonize
the World" is the organization's motto.
The international membership of nearly 27,000 women, all singing in
English, includes choruses in most of the fifty United States as well as in Australia, Canada, England, Finland, Germany,
Ireland, Japan, New Zealand, Scotland, Sweden, Wales and the Netherlands. There are also prospective choruses in Denmark,
Greece and United Arab Emirates. The organization encompasses more than 1,200 registered quartets and 600 choruses.

Emerald City Chorus - Regional Competition - Overland
Park, April 10, 2010
Emerald City Chorus competed in our third
regional competition on April 10, 2010. In a field of 15 choruses in Region 7, we scored 529 points bettering our previous
two years score and again finishing in 6th place. We are proud of this accomplishment as a three year old chorus.
Can you picture yourself on stage with others such as yourself, wearing
a sparkling costume and singing in beautiful four-part harmony? This has been the dream of many of our members that has come
true. It can happen for you! Come see for yourself. You'll discover:
Emerald City Chorus welcomes singers of all ages that are
seeking an outlet for their singing talents. We offer the opportunity to take advantage of expert musical training by our
co-directors, Judy Alterman and Dana Evans and the friendship and love of our members.
