Our Guest Faculty

Karen Breidert is the Director of Spirit of the Gulf Chorus in

Fort Myers, Florida. She is a popular coach and teacher within

Sweet Adelines International. She has achieved the level of

"Master Faculty" (one of only four women in the organization

to have achieved this goal) and "Master Director."

Karen has directed three choruses, ranking in the finals six

times. During her first tenure with Spirit of the Gulf, she

directed the chorus to win the coveted "Most Entertaining

Chorus Award" three times – an international chorus record.

She has won nine international quartet medals - including the

championship with Jubilation in 1985 and with The BUZZ in

2005. Karen was International President of Sweet Adelines

from 1998 - 1999.

Karen has a Bachelor's Degree in Education and Foreign

She lives in Jacksonville FL on the beautiful St. John's River

with her husband Bob - also a barbershop quartet finalist.

Since she began singing at age four with her family's

professional singing group, The Drummond Family Singers,

music has truly been in Karen's heart and soul for all of her

life.
