Tulsa, OK, July 24, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Sweet Adelines International will hold its 2015 Rising Star Quartet Competition Aug. 8, 2015, in Phoenix, Ariz., as 14 of the world’s best young female barbershop a cappella quartets vie for the coveted title.

The Rising Star Quartet Competition is an educational tool and performance opportunity for advancing the musical art form of barbershop a cappella harmony among young women age 25 and under, and its sole purpose is to recognize superior participation by young women in the barbershop a cappella art form.

Established in 1999, it was first held at Sweet Adelines International’s Education Symposium, then at the International Convention and Competition until 2014 when it was partnered with a regional Young Women in Harmony educational event. Katie Grassmyer, assistant director of music services for Sweet Adelines International, says, “Throughout the years, the Rising Star experience for these young singers has been very positive and engaging. We have learned that it is vital for these young women to sing in front of an appreciative audience and spend time with other women who love to sing.”

Rising Star will be held at the Renaissance Phoenix Downtown Hotel, 50 E. Adams St., Phoenix, AZ 85004. For hotel reservations, call (602) 333-0000. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit sweetadelineintl.org. Click on the 2015 Rising Star Contest link.
