It’s the harmony that makes the difference
Welcome to the world of barbershop
harmony
Although barbershop singing is usually thought of as an American
musical genre, it is alive and well in many European countries, not
least the UK. ‘Barbershop in Harmony’ is a unique collaboration
between three organisations, representing about 6,000 singers in
England, Wales and Scotland, to promote our art form, and to
encourage more people to experience the pleasure that singing with
others can bring.
