2022 District Quartet Champions
Learn more about our past quartet champions - visit QCED
QCED (Quartet Champions of Evergreen District) is a fraternity of past quartet champions from the Evergreen District of the Barbershop Harmony Society.
The Evergreen District encompasses Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington; as well as Alberta and British Columbia, Canada. Annually, the District holds a competition among its quartets and those who win the District Championship are inducted into QCED.
QCED also hosts one shows a year at the Ocean Shores Convention Center.. The proceeds are used to support coaching opportunities for quartets in out-lying areas around the District and assist our quartets who will be singing at the BHS International competition.
