What is Sweet Adelines?


"Sweet Adelines International is a worldwide organization of women singers committed to advancing the musical art form of barbershop harmony through education and performance". The barbershop style of music is sung a cappella in four-part harmony. We are a nonprofit organization of more than 30,000 women in 600 choruses in 27 regions around the world.


Competition

 

Heart of New Jersey is a registered not-for-profit organization.  We are a member of the Greater New York Region #15 of Sweet Adelines International. Every spring between 15 and 20 choruses compete in Philadelphia. There is a quartet contest as well. The first place chorus then goes on to an International competition one year later. The International Competition is in a different city every year.  This is an exciting opportunity to have fun, show off our talents and to get together to appreciate the outstanding abilities of our sister choruses.
