4-Star Collection
1997 Sweet Adelines International Quartet Champions
Denise, Marcia, Pat and Connie won the coveted title of Sweet Adelines International Quartet Champions in the fall of 1996 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida with Hurricane Josephine knocking at the door of the Florida coast! This exemplary quartet had been singing together for just nine years when they brought the the Sweet Adelines audiences to their feet and judges to tears with their sweet ballad, "Pal of My Cradle Days" and had them rolling in the aisles with laughter at the 4-Star Collection rendition of Weird Al Yankovic's hit, "Lasagna!"
4-Star Collection is not currently taking performances, but you can still purchase their timeless recordings by contacting them at fourstarqueen@msn.com or 651-777-2101. Stay tuned to this website for future updates.
ICE!
2003 Can-Am Region 6 Quartet Champions
Peg, Marcia, Denise and Karen – These four very talented ladies have many years of barbershop singing experience between them. With only six months of preparation, they won the 2003 Can-Am Region 6 Quartet Competition with the highest score ever achieved in Region 6. ICE! has placed in the top 15 at Sweet Adelines International Quartet Competition four times, earning 10th place medals in 2006. Their electrifying rendition of "Young and Foolish" and "It's a Sin to Tell a Lie" at the 2008 International Contest in Honolulu left the audience spellbound and earned them an invitation to compete in the 2009 Quartet Competition in Nashville, Tennessee.
