About Us

It was December 1973 when a small group of women came together in Avon Park, Florida with a vision of advancing the musical art form of barbershop harmony in this small rural community located in the center of Florida. Their goal was to create a chorus of women who had a common love of good music, a passion for singing, and the perseverance to attain set goals. Thus, The Heart of Highland Chorus was formed. Our membership has grown to 40 women of all ages who come from all walks of life. We strive to improve our techniques through practice and expert coaching. Fun and relaxation is also a key ingredient to the success of our chorus. We are not only chorus members who share a common goal but we are also good friends. If you would like to be a part of The Heart of Highland chorus we encourage you to come and experience the joy of friendship and music.
