WHAT IS BARBERSHOP HARMONY
Barbershop harmony is a style of a cappella, or unaccompanied, four-part vocal music characterized by the melody and two or more harmony parts moving in a common rhythm, producing chords that are pleasing to the ear. In Barbershop music, the lead part sings the melody line, tenor sings the harmony line above the melody and bass sings the harmony line below the melody, while the baritone sings both above or below the melody line to fill-in the notes needed to complete each chord.
WHO ARE WE?
We are a Barbershop Chorus…a group of men hailing from all walks of life…we welcome diverse cultures, backgrounds, ethnicities and occasional female guests…we welcome young, old and in between. One of the things we share in common, however, is that WE LOVE TO HARMONIZE!
Be sure to check out our current activities page
We are the Charlottesville chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society
Do you sing in the shower?…or while driving? Do you find yourself humming a tune or singing along with the radio?
Why not put that “Singing Bug” to work in our chorus?
If you already know music…Great! But NO…you don’t have to be a trained singer or have studied music to learn songs and sing with us.
You can learn in the way that is most comfortable for you…via sheet music, via audio learning tracks or a combination of both.
