About Golden Sands Chorus

Performance

We love to perform! We sing in annual shows, at community events, and at yearly competitions. We also perform singing telegrams for Mother's Day and during the holidays. We are available to sing at your next function or event. If you're looking for a unique musical experience to liven up your event, please check out our Hire Us section.
 

Education

In addition to sharing our music with others, another great passion of ours is learning more about the art of a cappella singing. Vocal instruction is a regular part of chorus rehearsals, and a very important component of the chorus experience. Several times a year, we receive coaching from visiting masters in vocal production, expression and showmanship.
 

Competition

In the spring of every year, Golden Sands Chorus participates in the Region 11 chorus competition in Bakersfield, CA. Competitions are a special time for quartets and choruses to come together to sing for each other, and receive constructive feedback from a panel of judges. The winners of the regional competitions in both quartet and chorus categories compete in the International Competition, which is held in the fall in a city selected each year.

Quartets

Most choruses have a number of members who form their own vocal quartets in addition to singing with the chorus. Golden Sands Chorus currently is home to two wonderful quartets. To learn more about them, click here.
