Alouette is Australia’s champion women’s barbershop quartet, having recently claimed the title at the Sweet Adelines Region 34 Convention in Hobart. Known for their rich harmonies, engaging performances, and infectious enthusiasm, they delight audiences wherever they sing.

Their achievements extend beyond Sweet Adelines. In May this year, Alouette also won first place in the 2026 Barbershop Harmony Australia Eastern Region Open Quartet Competition, further enhancing their reputation as one of Australia’s leading vocal ensembles.

In 2025, Alouette proudly represented Australia at the Sweet Adelines International Convention in Columbus, Ohio, where they placed an impressive 28th in the world. It was an unforgettable experience, made even more special by the incredible encouragement and generosity of family, friends, chorus members, and supporters from across Australia.

This October, they have the opportunity to return to Columbus and once again represent Australia on the international stage. However, sending four singers halfway around the world comes at a significant cost. Between airfares, accommodation, transport, and convention registration fees, the total expense is expected to be around $15,000 - $20,000. To help make this dream a reality, Alouette has launched a new GoFundMe campaign.

Alouette is made up of four talented singers from Circular Keys Chorus in Bella Vista, Sydney:

Vicki Dwyer – Lead singer and Musical Director of Circular Keys Chorus

Diane Jenkins – Tenor and Assistant Director of Circular Keys Chorus

Jane Masters – Baritone and the newest member of the quartet

Crystal Forbes – Bass and the foundation of Alouette’s sound.

Now they need your help.

When Alouette steps onto the international stage, they won’t just be representing themselves—they’ll be representing Circular Keys Chorus, Sweet Adelines Australia, and the wider Australian community. Every donation, no matter the size, will help them share their music, passion, and Australian spirit with audiences from around the world.

If you’ve ever enjoyed one of their performances, been inspired by their achievements, or simply want to support Australian talent on the world stage, please consider making a contribution.
