Sonrisas Harmony will celebrate their second birthday on September 15
The Murcia-based singers are fast growing in popularity
Sonrisas Harmony, a group of ladies who sing, will be celebrating their second birthday on September 15, 2024.
This amazing ladies A Capella chorus started in 2022 with 15 members and has already grown to 46, but how have they achieved this membership success in such a short space of time? New member Kate sheds light on what attracted her to the group.
“I look forward to my journey with these ladies,” says Kate. “I am so happy I plucked up the courage to come along. I’ve been totally blown away with the warm welcome, together with the encouragement and support I’ve received from such a lovely group of women.”
Another new member, Elaine, says a large part of the appeal is that it’s not all about the music: “Out of all the choral groups and choirs I have sung with, Sonrisas stands out for being the loveliest and putting the needs of the individuals on a level pegging with the importance of the music.”
Or, as Monika says, “As soon as I walked through the door, I felt the warmth and companionship from everyone.”
This positive view is also shared by their full-house audiences at the many venues they have performed at over the past two years, with the feedback always running along the lines of “So glad l came”, “Can’t wait to hear this brilliant chorus at Christmas” and “Wow, we can’t wait for them to come back again”.
Local churches, Ayuntamiento fiestas, social groups and commercial venues are but a few of the many locations that have enjoyed Sonrisas Harmony performances.
If you would like to discuss the possibility of the Chorus singing for a function, celebration or event see below for details.
Sonrisas Harmony will return to rehearsals in September with new additions to their repertoire, ready for private performances and the busy Christmas period.
If you would like to see them perform, keep an eye on publications in Murcia Today, on the Sonrisas Harmony website, or follow them on Facebook. Enquires for booking a performance can be made via email sonrisasharmony@outlook.com.

Introducing Sonrisas Harmony, the new A cappella Chorus on the coast of the Murcian Region; this all-ladies group are based in the Los Alcázares area.
Sonrisas Harmony formed in September 2022 with fifteen ladies who loved to sing and have the support of each other with the social side of the friendships they have formed. Since that time, the Chorus has grown to over 30 members, with nationalities from all over the world. The Musical Director Valerie Lynch is from the USA and comes to Sonrisas with a wealth of knowledge and experience.
Valerie graduated from the Crane School of Music in New York with a Bachelors Degree in Vocal Performance and Music Education, going on to receive a Masters Degree from The University of Texas. She has been a vocal coach and adjudicator in a variety of music genres. Having toured for over 20 years singing as a guest artist with various symphony and chamber orchestras across the USA, Valerie also worked with renowned instrumentalist for many years. Now settled here in Spain, she smiles when she comments that she is the proud MD of Sonrisas Harmony.
The music that Sonrisas Harmony perform is contemporary, four-part harmony A cappella. That might sound a bit of a mouthful to those who have not sung in a chorus before, so to explain, it is singing without the accompaniment of instruments, in four parts: lead, baritone, bass and tenor. The music is modern as well as some classic songs.
In April 2023, Sonrisas Harmony were asked to be in the opening show of one of the biggest A cappella contests in Europe. The spokesperson for the Chorus commented that “it was a great honour to be asked to perform at the Spanish Barbershop Convention 2023, it was the first time a non-barbershop chorus had taken part as far as we know”.
Last Christmas, Sonrisas Harmony sang at various venues around Los Alcázares and San Javier areas, so if you get the chance to attend one of their performances arrive early as it has mostly been standing room only with packed-out audiences!
The ladies rehearse every Wednesday from 10.30am to 1.30pm at Las Claras Centre in Los Alcázares.
There is no previous singing knowledge required and you are never asked to sing alone. All that is required is that you like to sing and have fun, as there is also a social side to Sonrisas Harmony where the ladies have social afternoons or away days.
