Oct. 13, 2018 (FRESNO, Calif.) —There was some great singing at the Far Western District Quartet Contest in Fresno. When the results of the semifinals were revealed, and the quartets ranked 11 – 13 were in the 70s, we knew it was going to be an incredible field competing in the finals — and it was!

While there was some shifting of positions between the two rounds, one quartet remained solidly on top, and even increased their lead by 20 points. The Far Western District is pleased to introduce our new champions…
