About Our Choir
We are an a cappella women's chorus located in Ottawa Ontario and under the musical direction of Janet Cadman. We love to sing, and we have fun doing it!
SAI is a worldwide organization of women singers committed to advancing the musical art form of barbershop harmony through education and performances.
Our History
The Bytown Beat chorus, formed in early 2005, became a charter member of Sweet Adelines International (SAI) in October 19, 2007, with 31 members. Over the years a few members have come and gone but a significant number of current members have been with the chorus from the very beginning, and the chorus continues to grow.
The core, founding group had barbershop experience but for the most part we have come because we loved singing in choirs, or the glee club, or the theatre, and because we heard the Bytown Beat Chorus sing at the mall or we attended a show.
Members learn music, good vocal production techniques and singing as a harmony team. We also learn about choreography, stage production, costuming, makeup and much more. Training and certification programs are available in the areas of directing, arranging, judging, teaching, personal growth and leadership.
