Music City Chorus wins chorus championship
A sideways sense of humor and straight-on gorgeous singing earned Nashville’s Music City Chorus its first-ever gold medals in Saturday’s International Chorus Contest.
The 86-singer chorus sang a comedic parody poking fun at the pandemic, the other choruses, and themselves most of all, and a touching reflection of the return to unity in “Circle of Life.” Music City’s superlative performance propelled them past powerhouse champions in a strong field of 37 choruses from across the continent.
The top five choruses were
- Music City Chorus (2872 - 95.7)
- Ambassadors of Harmony (2863 - 95.4)
- The Alexandria Harmonizers (2788 - 92.9)
- Parkside Harmony (2750 - 91.7)
- Central Standard (2749 - 91.6)
