Marquis (quartet)

Originating from the Cincinnati-Dayton area, they won the championship less than two years after they formed.

The singing tenor was Dale Fetick, while both bass Jay Hawkins and baritone Paul Gilman had sung previously in 1987 champion quartet Interstate Rivals.

They appeared in two 1996 PBS special productions "Voices In Harmony" and the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra Halloween concert.

They produced two compact discs: Diamond Cuts and In The Wee Small Hours.

Although they recruited Denny Gore as the lead to fulfill remaining commitments, they disbanded after a few years.
