Beautiful Phoenix, AZ was graced in 2003 by a gentle invasion of Sweet Adelines Choruses, all intent on capturing the gold. In the end, Northbrook, IL's Melodeers Chorus got to wear those golden necklaces, Pride of Baltimore Chorus placed second and Richardson TX's Rich-Tone Chorus placed third. The CD begins with two songs from 10th place finisher Spirit of Detroit Chorus, and two from Providence, RI's Coastline Show Chorus, and so on until 5th place finisher Toast of Tampa Show Chorus brings us 3 tunes. Finally the Melodeers perform four tunes from their winning set, "How Many Hearts Have You Broken," "If I Give My Heart To You," "My Melancholy Baby" and "Lulu's Back In Town," clearly saving the best for last. All the excitement of the live competition, and the best Sweet Adelines choruses in the world! |
