Traditional & Contemporary Music Sung Barbershop Harmony Style
A Uniquely American Music Art Form
TuneTown Show Chorus sings 4-part a cappella music that has been arranged in the barbershop harmony style. This style is one of the few music forms that originated in the United States. Songs that are considered barbershop were written near the beginning of the 20th century or have been written to meet the specific criteria that defines barbershop.
Music is sung unaccompanied with four voice parts. Tenor, the highest part, is sung above the melody. Lead, one of the 2 middle parts, is generally the melody. Baritone, also a middle part, is harmony usually below the melody. Bass, the lowest part, is harmony sung below the melody. This wide range of voice parts offers women with high or low voices a comfortable part to sing.
Although TuneTown Show Chorus sings many songs that can be categorized as strictly barbershop, the chorus puts a contemporary spin on the traditional notion of barbershop. The chorus performs music made popular by such artists as Air Supply, Alabama, Bryan Adams, The Beach Boys, Carole King, Celine Dion, Frank Sinatra, Joe Cocker, Josh Groban, Manhatten Transfer, Michael Jackson, Simon & Garfunkle & Sister Sledge....to name a few!
