Welcome to Capital City Chorus!
Region #4 Competition Coming April 16-17
Groups of women from four states will meet at the Northern Kentucky Convention Center in Covington, KY on April 16-17 for the annual Region #4 Convention and Competition. This 2-day event will feature quartets and choruses in competition performing songs from the 1890s to the 2000s that have been arranged for women's four-part a cappella harmony, and presented in costumed, choreographed production numbers.
Both competitions are open to the public. Lovers of a cappella and barbershop will find much to enjoy at Friday's quartet competition beginning at 1:00 PM. More than 20 combinations of tenor, lead, baritone, and bass singers will strive to score points in the categories of Music, Sound, Expression, and Showmanship. Capital City Chorus will have 2 quartets competing.
On Saturday, also beginning at 1:00 PM, small, mid-size and large choruses will compete with some of the finest groups in the Sweet Adelines organization. Capital City will be performing but since Capital City won last year's Region #4 competition and will be competing in the International competition in Oct. 2010, CCC will be performing for evaluation only.
This year's winning quartet will compete again this fall in Seattle; this year's winning chorus will compete in 2011 in Houston.
Tickets will be on sale at the NKCC box office for $30 each session. Get more information at 513-554-2648 or www.sai-region4.org.
