Barbershop music is presented a cappella
(no instrumental accompaniment) and is sung in four-part harmony. The close blending of the voices brings out an unsung fifth part, sometimes called an overtone or angel’s voice, and is unique to barbershop music. The style of music originated in African-American communities around the turn of the last century and was popularized in its current form in the 1940’s.

The chorus’s mission is to offer a creative outlet for woman of all ages and backgrounds;
to teach the craft of barbershop singing and harmony; and to provide a supportive, enriching and fun-filled fellowship for our members.
