Men and Women Quartets Set to Serenade on Valentine's Day - KXNet - Bismarck/Minot/Williston/Dickinson

If you're still looking for the perfect way to serenade your Valentine this year, a local barbershop quartet may have what you are looking for.

The Northern Lights Chorus will be delivering singing Valentines all day on February 14th.

For 40 dollars, they'll deliver candy, flowers, and the gift of song to sweethearts in the Bismarck-Mandan area.

"It's really the perfect thing on Valentine's Day for a group of tuxedo-clad singers to come into a work place or into a home or into a nursing home or something like that and sing to a loved one, whether it be a spouse, a boyfriend, a girlfriend, or a grandparent. It just melts hearts of whoever is the recipient," says barbershop singer Ken Purdy.

Purdy says they still have openings in the afternoon and the early evening.

If you would like to send a singing telegram to your sweetheart, call the Northern Lights Chorus at 220-6402

From a men's group  to a group of women that is "red hot".

They have been singing together so long it's hard to remember, but they think it's been around eight years.

They've seen all kinds of reactions when they surprise a loved one with their songs, from embarrassment to surprise, to tears, but a singing Valentine does offer something special you might not get from chocolates or flowers.

"It's a memory that lasts, fact I just talked with a girl the other day and she remembered that we had sung, and she said I will never forget that, she is one that cried, so touching, it's a lasting memory." says Jennifer Romsaas/On the Brink

Last year, they sang for around 43 people on Valentine's Day.

Marci Narum will have more on the singing group, Monday on the noon show.
