Alliance win third AAMBS WR contest gold

24 May 2009

Held at the St Stephen’s School Theatre yesterday, we are pleased to report that Alliance were awarded the gold medal in the Open Quartet division of the AAMBS Western Region Convention.

The field in the contest was the biggest in years and it was great to see a good number of representatives in every age bracket as well as a number of first time competitors. This contest, whilst important in its own right, is also the qualifying round for the AAMBS National Quartet Contest to be held in Hobart, Tasmania in September.

Our congratulations also go out to our Vocal Evolution chorus buddies in the quartets Nexus and 3 Men and a Tenor who placed second and third respectively in the Open Quartet contest. Vocal Evolution quartets also won the Schools (Fridge Magnets), Youth (3 Men and a Tenor) and Seniors divisions (Back To Bassics) – a clean sweep!

A great weekend it has to be said. Lots of singing, socialising and very little sleep!

We were invited over by the AAMBS Eastern Region to be the feature quartet and educators for their Quartet Workshop weekend. While we were there we did a special performance at a luncheon hosted by the Australian American Association and the American Embassy. We were interviewed on the radio by ABC Canberra and later on the Friday sang for a group of international military attaches at a Aussie BBQ-themed dinner.

You can listen to some of our radio performance here. We are also featured on the front page of the US Embassy in Canberra [at the moment.]
