Chorus Regional Registration


Picture
​Regional registration is the process by which we get all the miscellaneous information we need about each competing chapter.   ONLY THE PRESIDENT, TEAM LEADER, or CHORUS CONVENTION CHAIR SHOULD FILL OUT THIS INFORMATION.   This is not something  individual members need to do.


Step 1 of 4:  Have you competed the  International Entry Form?
WHY:    All competing choruses must first complete an Entry Form to compete with Sweet Adelines International.   Competition entry information was emailed to choruses on January 28, 2022. ​   
WHO DOES THIS:  President/Team Leader or Treasurer/Finance Manager.
​
WHEN:  Chorus entry forms must be submitted to International   by 3/15/2022    to be included in the initial draw for order of appearance.  After that date, the late fee is $250.00, with the final/late deadline to enter being 3/30/2022.
WHERE:  If your chorus hasn't already done so, enter   for contest on the   Sweet Adeline website  before Starting Step 2.

And a general tip!   Be sure to   
read everything offered by SAI on their website,  small print included! Forms change from year to year, with more duties being handled online and/or electronically. Don't miss out because you haven't read the details. 

Step 2 of 4:  Are your songs ready?

​SONG ASSESSMENT TOOL:   
Prior to  performance, all competitors are required to receive an “Admissible” rating through the Song Assessment Tool for all songs they intend to perform. Any song performed in contest that is found to have NOT received an “Admissible” rating will result in the performance being immediately stopped and the performer being disqualified.  

COPYRIGHT CLEARANCE:   Sweet Adelines International requires that only copyright-cleared music be sung at regional competitions. If you have a medley of songs, you must include the information   about   each song, no matter how short the excerpt. Do not presume any song is in the public domain or that your parody is okay; check to be certain. Please read this   Copyright Matters  document from SAI. In our high-tech, online world it is best to ask permission before using altered material or posting anything.   If you have additional copyright questions, contact   music@sweetadelines.com.

By submitting the Competing Chorus Registration Form below, competitors are stating that:
1.  They have obtained appropriate clearance permission for the arrangements they plan to sing.
2.  The competitors are members in good stand with Sweet Adelines International and with North by Northwest Region 13.
3.  All rights to fees, commissions, royalties, or profits received as the result of the distribution sale or lease of the recordings  or webcast in any form, as assigned to North by Northwest Region 13.
