Dutch Mill Sweet Adelines will add a special touch to 'Singspiration'


Congratulations to the Dutch Mill Sweet Adelines of Wamego. Last weekend in Kansas City, they competed with 15 other choruses at the Sweet Adelines International Region 7 convention. They won first place by a margin of 30 contest points.
The competition included choruses from Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Iowa. This Saturday, April 11, in McCain Auditorium, Manhattan's Little Apple Chorus will be proud to have the Wamego Dutch Mill Sweet Adelines perform with our chorus. We will perform two songs as a combined chorus of more than 90 voices. The ladies also will perform the two numbers they sang when they won the competition in Kansas City.

The Little Apple Chorus Show, "Singspiration" in Barbershop Harmony, will be presented twice this Saturday — at 2 and 7:30 p.m. — at McCain Auditorium. Playing one-half hour before each show will be the Manhattan Barefoot Dixieland Band. This year's guest quartet is Lucky Day. It is a new quartet composed of two members who are international award winners and two new guys who soon will be.
The show will be a unique opportunity for Manhattan to enjoy some wholesome hometown entertainment. The Little Apple Chorus is a chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society and is a not-for-profit organization that promotes a capella singing for people of all ages.
