Luminous, 2007 Rising Star Quartet Champion

Rising Star Quartet Contest

The anticipation, excitement, and discipline of preparing for an adjudicated barbershop contest in an environment of learning and fun is available to women singers age 25 and younger at the Rising Star Quartet Contest. The contest is just one feature of an exciting three-day International Education Symposium (IES), produced by Sweet Adelines International, one of the world's most experienced vocal music education organizations. IES includes curriculum especially suited to young women singers and their vocal music instructors.

The Young Singers Foundation awards cash prizes of $2,000, $1,000 and $500 for the first, second and third place winners of the Rising Start Quartet Contest.
The purpose of the Rising Star Quartet Contest is to encourage young women to develop mastery in their singing technique, and experience the pleasure of singing four-part a cappella harmony in the barbershop style. The 2006 Rising Star Championship Quartet is Footnotes.

The 2008 Rising Star Quartet contest will be held on Friday, July 18, in San Antonio, Texas. To request an application, contact the Music Services Department at Sweet Adelines International by calling 800.992.7464 or 918.622.1444. Or visit the Sweet Adelines International Web site.
