Greater Nassau Earns 7th International Place Medals!Topping their finish in Detroit two years ago, Greater Nassau Chorus earned 7th place medals at the International Convention in Calgary, Alberta. With 71 women on stage, Greater Nassau was the smallest chorus in the Top 10, but they made a big impression and I was proud to be in their small but loud cheering section in Calgary. Here’s SING Internet reporter Marti Lovejoy’s comment about their ballad in the first set (“Once Upon A Time,” which was the contest’s most popular song): “Even though I have sat beneath that willow tree a lot this week, they are selling me on doing it again. The singers are really into the story, and that makes it easy to listen. Screaming overtone on the tag. This chorus sings CLEAN.” Greater Nassau scored 2603 out of a possible 3280 points between the two contest rounds. Their finals package (“Harriette’s Diner”) was a pleasure to watch, even if I am biased. What’s more, the chorus jumped from 10th place (where they were at the end of the semi-finals) up into 7th place. Way to go, gals! Our Region 15 quartet representative, Escape, also did us proud in the quartet semi-finals, where many of the contestants were separated by a matter of one or two points. I encourage you to reach out and tell both Escape and Greater Nassau how proud we are of them!
