All-women Edmonton Barbershop Chorus Heading to United States to compete on international stage

Edmonton – For the first time in 75 years Gateway Chorus, an Edmonton-based Barbershop Chorus, has received a wildcard invitation to compete internationally in Louisville Kentucky in October 2020. 

"Gateway Chorus is comprised of more than 60 women of all ages who have worked very hard to make it to international competition and represent Edmonton as a wildcard contestant for the first time in our almost 60-year history,” said Lisa Greenough, Director of Gateway Chorus.

This year Gateway scored at a level high enough at regional competition in Surrey B.C. to qualify for the wildcard spot for the first time in Gateway’s history.
