What they're saying 

Listen to what a few chorus members from around the country have to say about being in orgnazations like ours:

  I had just lost my job and was very upset and depressed. My sister, who sings with another chorus, kept after me to get into Sweet Adelines. "You have to find a chorus", she would say. Finally, I found an address on the internet in Altoona for a chorus. I walked into the church hall by myself thinking "what on earth am I doing here?  I don't know anyone."

     Altoona Chorus has been my "therapy" now for at least ten years. Even when I'm down and really don't feel like going to rehearsal, I do it anyway. I know that I will feel 100 percent better by the time I leave.

“I enjoy the fun and fellowship of the ladies, and the beautiful music. Many of the members in my group I have known for years and feel comfortable singing with them. I consider my time with them to be much needed therapy!”
Robin Smith, Tri City Sound Chorus

“I am so happy to have found Sweet Adelines and am telling all my sisters about the fun we have and the lovely ladies I have met so far.”
Cindy Phair, Suncoast Harmony Chapter

“I wish I had done it 20 years ago.”
Rosemary Trimpe, Grand Rapids Chorus

“I have made so many wonderful new friends and the music runs through my head 24/7.“
Carole Ann Richards, Cincinnati Sound Chorus

”Singing is the best therapy for lifting spirits. The music creates a positive healing flow of energy from one person to another and it is a very powerful tool in creating stable mental and physical health. Music is known to reduce stress and balance the spirit.” 
Susan Swertfager, South Valley Sound Chorus

“I'm a part of an awesome group of ladies. They work really hard at each rehearsal, but they have so much fun at the same time.”
Patti Bade, Spirit of Harmony Chorus
