The Midwest Vocal Express men's a cappella chorus will present "Champions" on June 14, 2008 at the South Milwaukee PAC. "Champions" will feature Wisconsin's only International Top Ten and current Land O'Lakes District chorus champions, plus the Barbershop Harmony Society's 2007 International Quartet champions, "Max-Q." Master of Ceremonies, Vince Vitrano from Today's TMJ4 TV, will guide the audience through this awe-inspiring and family-friendly show that highlights champions around us in our everyday lives.

The MIDWEST VOCAL EXPRESS was formed in 1988 by men dedicated to musical excellence and a professional level of showmanship in their performance of the Barbershop art form. There are over 800 Barbershop chapters worldwide and for the last decade, the Midwest Vocal Express has finished in the Top 10 in competition. Under the direction of Grant Wilson, the MVE is headquartered in Greendale, WI, and rehearses every Monday night. Guests are always welcome. Proceeds from the performance help support our travel to represent Wisconsin as a top International competitor in "the Olympics of Barbershop," held this July in Nashville, TN.
