Sweet Adelines International 75th Jubilee Commemorative Album

Sweet Adelines International will have an artificial intelligence (AI) and neuroscience division. This provides instant upload of repertoire and educational content directly to the brains of our members and enables automatic evaluation of vocal accuracy. Our 100,000-plus singers will learn and retain any song, in any part, instantly, while their membership is active. AI enables us to connect and rehearse with singers, educators, and any chorus of our choice without needing to travel. —Sharon Cartwright, International Board Member

Our guiding principles are strong and rival those of many large corporations. By 2045, our business model for nonprofit organizations will be viewed as one of the best in the world, and we will be sought after as consultants, teaching and sharing our expertise and knowledge with the corporate world. This new source of revenue will help offset operational and education costs, making membership more affordable for all. We will grow in numbers and hit 35,000 by our 100th anniversary. Everyone will want a piece of Sweet Adelines International! —JD Crowe, International Board Member This may not be a true prediction, but it's definitely a dream! I dream of 50,000 members, worldwide, with a highly diverse membership. I dream of the world truly knowing the lifelong benefits of sharing song with a real family of singers; knowing that through music, and the friendships it engenders, life is enriched beyond measure. We will be so relevant to the needs of the women of 2045 that we are the “go to” organization for those wanting to sing! How about a Broadway musical about Sweet Adelines? I've seen many performances on our International stage that rival them, so why not!? I mostly dream of this organization carrying forward the power of a dream and instilling that power in our members. In 2045, Sweet Adelines International will continue to inspire and empower our members to sing their own, powerful song! —Patty Cobb Baker, International President (2018–2020)

In an increasingly technological society, women are rediscovering the joy of connecting on a personal level. What better way to connect than to join voices together in song? Sweet Adelines is providing the outlet for creating harmony through music and relationships. —Mary Rhea, International Board Member
