Silk City Chorus 50th Annual Show

Manchester's Silk City Chorus is
launching the celebration the Chapter's 50th Anniversary year (coinciding with
the Barbershop Harmony Society's 75th Anniversary) at its 2013 Annual Show on
Saturday, January 19th at Manchester High School with two performances (1:30
and 7:30 PM).


Manchester's Silk City Chorus'
annual show has a consistent tradition of bringing together some of the
greatest a cappella  singing
groups.. Our annual show is well known as one of the consistently entertaining
musical events in New England.


The SCC annual show consistently attracts
the premier Barbershop quartets in the world! This year's featured
quartets--Ringmasters from Sweden and Masterpiece from Southern
California are the First and Fourth Place medalists in the 2012 International
Barbershop Quartet contest in Portland, Oregon. Ringmasters is the first
ever Barbershop Harmony Society Gold Medalist from abroad. The performers in
the two featured quartets have earned no fewer than 7 International Quartet
contest Gold medals and countless Silver and Bronze medals between them.

The caliber of talent that we feature on our show consistently attracts some of the
largest audiences of any Barbershop chapters in New England. And finally, the
host Silk City Chorus is among the most exciting performing choruses in the
entire Northeast, having won the Yankee Division contest every year for the
past eight years. We are confident that we will live up to our long-standing
tradition of dazzling our audiences and bringing  them 
back year after year.


When you attend this show, you will
walk away in awe of our overall entertainment value. You will laugh
hysterically, smile a lot, maybe cry a little, rock to the beat of some songs. And
 at the end you will cheer and beg for
more. The "winner" of this all is you--our audiences. Every year's
Silk City Chorus annual show is a virtual sell-out of nearly 1100 seats per
event.
