The new Sweet Adelines International Music Educator Award was created specially for Sweet Adelines, by Sweet Adelines!
Sweet Adelines celebrates the achievements of music educators who have embodied our Guiding Principles of musical excellence, culture of belonging, diversity & inclusion, personal empowerment and leadership, and outreach by using their expertise to promote barbershop-style singing in their schools.

The new Sweet Adelines Music Educator Award award does not require membership in any other music organization and Sweet Adelines members can self-nominate.
In September 2022, the International Board of Directors approved the Sweet Adelines International Music Educator Award to replace former educator awards. The first Sweet Adelines Music Award will be presented at the 2023 International Convention & Competition in Louisville, Kentucky (USA).

Applications are currently being accepted!

• Nominations must include the application form, one reference letter, and a recent photograph.
• Send all materials to to the Education Department at Sweet Adelines International Headquarters by May 8, 2023.

Past Sweet Adelines International Music Educator Award Recipients

In the past, Sweet Adelines International has partnered with professional music educator associations to present the associations’ awards to Sweet Adelines members during International Convention. Since 1992, over thirty Sweet Adelines have been recognized. To be eligible for nominations to receive these awards, nominees were required to belong to one of the partner associations.
