Most rehearsals bring in about 25 men from all different musical backgrounds. Every rehearsal night is visitor night, and you will always be welcome whether you just want to listen, sing along, or consider joining the chorus. No musical experience is necessary. The chorus has been singing in Boulder since 1949.
Barbershop harmony is a style of unaccompanied singing in which three voices harmonize to a melody.
The voice parts are called tenor, lead, baritone, and bass. The lead usually sings the melody. The tenor harmonizes above the melody. Tuning is as nearly perfect as is vocally possible. The style is distinguished by uniformity of word sounds and a special emphasis on close harmony.
