Sweet Adelines International 75th Jubilee Commemorative Album

Music, music, music: Sweet Adelines expands its music education. Music schools sponsored by the international organization continue to inspire and supplement the programs planned and administered by the regional leadership. Specialized training is also offered regularly to regents, DMAs, judges, chorus directors, and other leaders. Sweet Adelines meet other members and make friends, not only in their own area or region, but also ones who live far away. The best part is that the friends made at the schools are not lost: members can meet friends from other parts of the world at the international convention each year.
