Registration is now open for How Sweet the Sound™, which is back in 2010 and bigger than ever with the expansion to three new communities. Now in its third year, How Sweet The Sound — a national program created by Verizon Wireless — gives church choirs nationwide a chance to win the title of “The Best Church Choir in America” and up to $50,000 in cash and prizes.
How Sweet the Sound is much more than a singing competition for choirs — it is an opportunity to celebrate the unique ways that music connects people within their communities. Interested choir representatives can visit www.HowSweetTheSound.com or select Verizon Wireless retail locations for more information and to register for a chance to compete at concerts that will take place in the following cities:
- Houston
- St. Louis
- Washington, D.C.
- Philadelphia
- New York
- Detroit
- Chicago
- Atlanta
- Memphis, Tenn.
- Los Angeles
- Oakland, Calif.
- Jacksonville, Fla.
- Cleveland
- Charlotte, N.C.
“We are excited to expand How Sweet the Sound to add Jacksonville, Cleveland and Charlotte and to bring the joy of Gospel music to a new audience,” said Joe Saracino, vice president of marketing for Verizon Wireless. “Gospel is a genre that attracts people from all walks of life and we are proud to have created such a special program that celebrates music and recognizes the many volunteers who make church choirs such an important part of the community.”
