Far Western District Chapters

Chapters in the Far Western District are always looking for new members. Most chapters have a chorus and quartets, but a few are "quartet only" chapters. Each chapter has its own style and focus ranging from "competition oriented" to a more social pursuit of singing. Many areas have several chapters to choose from, so find one that meets your needs and join us.

You may sort this table by clicking on the underlined words in the column headings.

We at Central Arizona Quartet Chapter are very proud of being able to provide a quartetting opportunity for a membership that now numbers nearly 50 strong. These range from men who just want an opportunity to woodshed some chords and socialize with barbershop friends of several decades, to others who get serious about developing a performance foursome that will entertain general and show audiences alike (such as OK CHORALE and several others forming), to still others who get even more serious and work hard to win in competition (such as PASTENSE - current FWD Super Senior Champs; LEGACY - current Az/So Nev/Utah Division Champs and #4 FWD; and FINALE - current FWD Champs)

Barbershop is about fun, fellowship and singing. Our promise is that if you come visit or choose to join; you will get plenty of all three and a whole lot more. We have members from their teens to in their seventies-but ya wouldn't know it if I didn't just tell ya! Our evening consists of vocal warmups ... chorus singing ... a mid evening break followed by a weekly quartet show. If you didn't feel like you sang enough; you went to the wrong place. WE DO SING. Let us help put a smile on your face and songs in your heart. We proudly boast divisional championships for our size chorus over many years. We were chartered in 1945 and are still going strong. Please; come try us on for size.
