The Mad Hatters Chorus, based in Danbury, Connecticut, has been spreading joy and harmony across western Connecticut and eastern New York since 1966. We are a nonprofit affiliate of the worldwide 30,000-member Barbershop Harmony Society. The Hatters sing for shut-ins and at nursing homes, assisted-living centers, schools, and civic events. We also provide scholarships for deserving music students. Twice a year, we compete in regional singing contests. In March 2008, we won Best Small Chorus in the Yankee Division of the Barbershop Harmony Society's Northeast District, comprising New England and parts of Canada and New York. In 2011, we won Best Small Chorus and Most Improved Chorus in the Yankee Division of the Barbershop Harmony Society's NorthEast District, and the Great Small Chorus Championship and Most Improved Chorus Champion of the entire NorthEastern District. Our singers range in age from 25 to 85 and come from many walks of life. They include a pediatrician, a judge, a tennis coach, a software entrepreneur, a CPA, a high-school principal, a philatelist, an insurance-fraud investigator, a deli counter man, a math teacher, an oil-company executive, a science teacher, a landscaper, a hospital credit manager, a college student, a chemical engineer, a life-support technologist, a nuclear-power If you have a good singing voice, and want to make beautiful music while bringing happiness to others, we'd love to have you join us.
