Is the end of lockdown now in sight? We certainly hope so. However it looks like singing together in person is still a long way off so unfortunately Vocal Zone have no immediate plans to be able to get together to rehearse. Hopefully later in 2021 we will be back sharing music with you!
January 2021 sees Vocal Zone starting their 20th year singing together unfortunately still in lockdown. Hopefully later in the year there will be the opportunity to return to singing together and the chance to put on a performance to mark their 20th anniversary.
Vocal Zone is not currently able to rehearse or perform due to the coronavirus but hopefully later in the year they will be able get together again and will be able to take some bookings, so please continue to contact us if you want to book us for later in the year or for 2021.
Vocal Zone will be featuring in the Aberdeen Chorus of Sweet Adelines Christmas shows which will be held at Curl Aberdeen, Eday Road, Aberdeen on Sunday 1st December. See Aberdeen Chorus website for details.
Vocal Zone recently had the pleasure of spending time working with Karen Breidert who was across from the United States to coach the Aberdeen Chorus. As always, it was both productive and fun!
The quartet was very pleased to receive 2 “Very Good” awards at the Aberdeen Music Festival in the Barbershop Quartet class and the Light Music Ensemble Class.
It was also great fun to receive some impromptu coaching from the adjudicator when no other competitors turned up for the class and there was some time to fill!
Peggy Gram visited Aberdeen last weekend and Vocal Zone was lucky enough to benefit from some coaching from her.
She is a great coach and we had a great time with her!
Thanks, Peggy!
Vocal Zone had a wonderful time in Benalmadena in Spain where they took part in the International Division of the Spanish Association of Barbershop Singers contest.
On 12th May 2017 Vocal Zone competed in the Open Division of Sweet Adelines International‘s Region 31 contest to be held at The Sage in Gateshead.
This section of the competition requires the quartet to put on a performance package and is judged on entertainment value as well as the quality of singing.
Aaaarrrrrr! – We became pirates for the day!
Vocal Zone entered two classes in the recent Aberdeen Music Festival and has won 1st place in each class.
In both cases they were also awarded an “Outstanding” certificate.
