Most Entertaining Chorus

This award was created for several reasons: To offer more entertainment content for our audiences and to encourage the smaller choruses to attend and compete in the Fall Contest. There will be two awards: one for Group 1, consisting of the 4A and 5A choruses, and one for Group 2, consisting of all others.

When is it awarded?

It is announced immediately prior to the announcement of the International Chorus Qualifier.

Who presents it?

A representative of the Host Chapter presents the awards.

What criteria are used?

All choruses in the contest will be judged by a non-barbershop panel selected by the host chapter, and their scoring will not be part of the C&J Panel.

How is the information obtained?

A member of the Host Chapter empanels 5 to 7 community members, selected by the host chapter, who are given score sheets provided by the Awards Committee with the basic criteria used to determine a numerical score. A Host Chapter representative will work with the judges to add the scores for each of the chorus groups to determine the winners.

What is the physical award?

Plaques will be given to each of the two winning choruses.
