Who Are the ScotianAires?

The ScotianAires choir (known as a chorus) is a diverse group of women of all ages from across the Halifax Regional Municipality who perform and compete singing a cappella harmony in the barbershop style. Established in 1983 and now directed by Sue Kember, we are a chapter of Harmony, Inc., an international non-profit organization whose purpose is to "empower all women through education, friendship and singing".

Queens of Harmony

Area 1 of Harmony, Inc., representing Eastern Canada, is celebrating a momentous achievement following the 2025 Harmony, Inc. International Convention and Contests, held recently in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
The ScotianAires Chorus and Synergy Quartet represented Area 1 with distinction at the annual international contests, showcasing the exceptional talent and artistry of women’s barbershop singing in Atlantic Canada.

In an extraordinary triumph, Synergy Quartet was crowned the 2025 Queens of Harmony, capturing the top international title in women’s barbershop harmony. The quartet includes two members of the ScotianAires — Sue Kember (Director) and Jennifer Cleveland — along with Adèle Merrit, Director of Valley Voices Chorus, and Corinna Garriock, Associate Director.
