Tucson Desert Harmony, a local chapter of Sweet Adelines International, has successfully built an award-winning women’s chorus in Tucson. Our community-wide group of women sing four-part harmony in the “barbershop” style. We sing the familiar songs… the ones people like to hum along with; and we also apply the barbershop style to many popular contemporary songs.
Tucson Desert Harmony Chorus provides musical training and vocal education opportunities to each of its members. Some members also form quartets and double quartets to perform locally. We can perform almost anywhere! Please contact us to schedule exciting musical entertainment at YOUR next event. We will complement your program with a customized musical performance.
