Director’s Message

There is something very special about creating music with voices unaccompanied and it would be my sincerest privilege for you to come and to share in this unique acapella experience with the Gentlemen of Harmony Chorus. If you enjoy singing I have no doubt that you will find yourself right at home and willing to participate in an evening of fun, laughter and of course 4 part harmony singing.

Although it may look easy, barbershop harmony singing is a very multifaceted art form requiring intense focus, discipline and commitment. Each member of the chorus must blend his voice in perfect tune, balance and synchronization with the other members of the chorus, without the benefit of instruments to depend on. This requires a good ear and great attention to vocal production and performance skills while still providing the effect of an effortless flow of beautiful music.

Now if that doesn’t give you the warm fuzzies then wait there’s more, and perhaps the most important part of enjoying an evening out with the Gentlemen of Harmony Barbershop Chorus. You may be surprised to know that men/boys of all ages are welcome and believe-it-or-not, you need not be an experienced singer. You don’t even need to read music. All that is required for you to enjoy your evening with the Gentlemen of Harmony is to carry a tune and…

SING, SING, SING! LET US DO THE REST!

There is no greater feeling in the Barbershop acapella world than to ring that perfect chord and create that expansion of sound that makes the hairs on your arms stand straight up. So come right in, leave your cares and worries at the door and join this brotherhood of harmony we call Barbershop.
