About Us
Velvet Hills Chorus
The Velvet Hills Chorus has been a chapter of Sweet Adelines International for over 50 years! We currently have over 70 members and are always welcoming new members. We are united in our love of singing 4-part unaccompanied Barbershop harmony. Our Directors are Christian and Jadyn Diaz. We rehearse each Monday night from 7-9 p.m. and have extra weekend coaching session once a year. The Chorus performs throughout the Pikes Peak Area. We participate regularly in the Rocky Mountain Region 8 Annual Chorus Competition and have competed multiple times in the Sweet Adelines International Competition where we have regularly placed in the top 10.
Our members have many opportunities for learning and improving musical skills during rehearsals and competitions. In the continuing quest for musical excellence, we occasionally bring in nationally renowned coaches (e.g., Peggy Gram, Betty Clipman, Jim Arns, Renee Porzel, Ase Hagerman, Carol Kirkpatrick, Sharon Babb, Marge Bailey).
The Velvet Hills Chorus does not discriminate, nor will it tolerate discrimination on the basis of race, creed, color, sex, national origin, religion, age, physical or mental ability, sexual orientation, gender expression, marital status, and/or political affiliation. This policy applies to all Velvet Hills members, volunteers, clients, and contractors. We are committed to creating learning environments free of any form of harassment and/or oppression.
