Performing quartets bring a great sense of pride, not just to themselves, but also to their own chorus, their supporters and the wider artistic community. Moreover, quartets often contribute to the growth and promotion of their art form. They serve as ambassadors, showcasing the beauty and skill of their musical genre. Their success can inspire others to pursue music and engage in similar artistic endeavors, thus enriching the cultural landscape and fostering a sense of pride within the wonderful world of song and harmony.

In keeping with the above, we wish to extend our warmest and heartfelt congratulations to Onyx and Somesing, two ACS quartets, who respectively won 2nd and 3rd place at the 2023 Area 5 AC&C! Huge congratulations go as well to Continental Crush, the Champions of the 2023 Area 5 ACC, and to all the quartets who qualified for IC&C in November, including ACS quartets Road Trip, SWAG and Life is Good! We also are extremely proud of Sweet ‘n Salty, an emerging and very promising ACS quartet who were the mic testers for the Area 5 AC&C quartet competition held in Toronto on May 26th.

The achievements of our chorus’ quartets are a testament to their hard work, talent and dedication, and they serve as a beacon of inspiration and admiration for all of us.
