Verdugo Hills Chorus is a membership organization of women who love to sing in "barbershop style": a cappella four-part harmony! We meet regularly in San Gabriel, CA, to practice, perform, socialize, and have fun. Currently, we have about 50 members of all ages, from all walks of life. We are a chapter of SingUnited International (formerly Sweet Adelines International) a non-profit organization of approximately 23,000 members in choruses and quartets worldwide.
We are far from perfect, but we're often pretty darn good! In April 2026, Verdugo Hills Chorus won our Region 11 chorus competition. Indeed, we have won our regional competition many times in the 70-year history of Verdugo Hills Chorus. Our status as 2026 regional champions earned us the privilege of competing in the SingUnited International Chorus Competition in October 2027 in Seattle. We are working hard to be the best we can be—and we have a lot of fun while we're doing it.
If you love to sing, Verdugo Hills Chorus is the right place for you! We are always looking to diversify and grow our membership and so we'd be happy to incorporate your joy of singing into our sound. Our song-learning methods work with all skill levels and experience. And maybe we'll help you become an even better singer than you already are. Come and check us out. We typically meet on Wednesday evenings from 7 to 10 pm at the Elks Lodge in San Gabriel. We'd love to have you visit. And we'd love to have you join!

On Saturday, May 9th, Verdugo Hills Chorus was privileged to host the 20th annual A Cappella Scholarship Festival! The festival brings together talented high school choral groups from all over Southern California. Each of the fifteen groups that passed their auditions this year competed in the festival and received scholarship awards in cash, supporting their school's vocal music education. The cash scholarship awards are made possible by a generous grant from the John C. Hench Foundation, which has championed vocal music education through every Verdugo Hills Chorus festival since 2005.
In October 2025, Verdugo Hills Chorus had the honor of competing in the Sweet Adelines International Chorus Competition in Columbus, Ohio! It was a week of new discoveries, happy meetings with old and new friends, lots of hard work, joyous singing, and great fun! Please click here enjoy this sampling of photos from the week!
