Members of the Northeastern District:

The Barbershop Harmony Society has formulated a new format to our International Contest for quartets and choruses as a result of the adoption of the Everyone in Harmony vision.  This will have an impact on our quartets and choruses as it accommodates male/female/mixed choruses and quartets including, but not limited to:
  1. Expansion of district contests to include female and mixed quartets and choruses (and, therefore, in our case our division/regional contests)
  2. Expansion of international contests to include female and mixed quartets and choruses
  3. Minimum qualification scores for entry into the International contests for both quartets and choruses
  4. Elimination of ‘guaranteed’ district representation at both international quartet and chorus contests

The material below is available on the Society website but we have put it together in one place for your easier access.  We encourage you to:
 
1. Watch the video (about 17 minutes long):
