Welcome!

Forth Valley Chorus is an extraordinary group of women who love to sing barbershop music. We are a chapter of Sweet Adelines International.

Christmas Season

We have been busy for a few weeks polishing up our Chrstmas songs and carols. If you would like to hear us please pop along to these events. Due to the size of the venues there will be a smaller number of us with our unique 4-part barbershop sound.  .

8th November Waverley Market 1-2.30pm We will be collecting donations for Maggie's Centre Edinburgh.  

10th November St Giles 7.00pm -9.00pm We are supporting the Bloodwise Christmas Carol Concert which features a mix of traditional and modern tunes performed by Edinburgh choirs. 

15th December Brewhemia 1.30- 4.30pm Come along to hear us sing as part of Brewhemia's "Sleighbell Sundays". Meet Santa and Mrs Claus, watch a classic Christmas movie and enjoy our carols over a truly indulgent Sunday roast.

Top Ten Success in New Orleans!

On Saturday 21st September we broke the UK record and stormed into the TOP 10 in our competition in New Orleans. 

Along with scores of other Barbershop choruses and quartets we filled the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans with harmony for a full week. We represented Sweet Adeline’s International Region 31 Quartet of Nations – which includes all of Great Britain and the Netherlands – and put both Scotland and the UK on the Barbershop map .This is the first time a region 31 chorus has EVER featured in the TOP 10.

Our finals package evoked both emotion and exuberance and landed us a 10th place spot
with the best of barbershop across the globe. The chorus are still reeling in delight and are wearing their medals with pride.

Previously

On Saturday 29th June held a Summer Show in the Central Hall Tollcross. The profit from the show was added to funds raised throughout the year and helped us reach our target to provide some financial assitance to our chorus members travelling to New Orleans.

Just in cased you missed 2017 was a tremendous year when we competed in the Sweet Adelines International Competition and Convention in Las Vegas representing Region 31. Click to see our best ever Semi-Finals Package, which gained us 11th place. The highest placed chorus from Region 31, so far.

This also means we had the honour of being the first chorus from Region 31 to sing on finals day, when we had the privilege of acting as mic warmers for the finals competition. We brought a little piece of Scotland to the stage at the MGM Grand in Vegas. Click here to see our Mic Warmers Set

In a first for Edinburgh Trams, members of Forth Valley Chorus surprised and delighted passengers on a tram with a flas mob sing. The Scotsman newspaper picked up on this unique event - check out their article here. 

On a more modest note we can also be heard throughout the year singing for charity events, private groups, churches, community events, and fundraisers. See our Performance page page for details!
