The Mid-Atlantic District is an association of barbershop chapters which is dedicated to promoting and encouraging the art form of Barbershop Harmony by providing Education Events, Conventions for Quartet and Chorus Singing and Community Outreach.Conventions for Quartet and Chorus SingingGetting people together to sing at barbershop conventions is an integral part of how we promote barbershop harmony. We provide the opportunity for both quartets and choruses to sing or to compete in Barbershop Harmony Society (BHS) sanctioned events. These employ highly trained Society judges who not only score the ensembles but also provide improvement feedback to all who wish it. Many of our ensembles compete at the highest levels at BHS International Conventions.Education EventsEducation includes not only musical and singing training but also leadership training. We have dedicated individuals who are responsible for developing curricula, identifying and securing faculty and staff as well as either facilities/classrooms or virtual classrooms for delivery of classes. We cater to all skill and age levels as young as middle schoolers.Community OutreachWe engage with our community by providing shows featuring our choruses and quartets. We sing at retirement communities and at a variety of local events, spreading the joy of Barbershop Harmony. We even deliver many hundreds of Singing Valentines to folks in our communities just to put a smile on their face.ABOUT USThe Mid-Atlantic District Association of Chapters (“District”) was chartered in June 1949 by the Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barbershop Quartet Singingin America, Inc.
