Upon realizing that girls aren’t overly fond of glasses-wearing, math-loving clarinetists, Mr. Girard switched to drums in middle school, much to the delight of his family and neighbors. Guitar was even better at attracting female attention, so he grew out his hair, bought a Stratocaster, and began writing love songs. Mr. Girard’s first encounter with a cappella was as a college freshman at the University of Vermont. Enticed by the Top Cats’ marketing slogan “Chicks Dig Guys Who Sing,” Mr. Girard joined the group as a tenor and later became the group’s vocal percussionist. After graduating from the University of THE HOUSE JACKS internationally, including France, Italy, Belgium, Vermont with a degree in applied mathematics The House Jacks of San Francisco are the the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Japan, and computer science, Mr. Girard worked as original “rock band without instruments.” and Singapore.

  • Barbershop: a Cappella's Martial Art by Deke Sharon You're Young, You
    Barbershop: A Cappella’s Martial Art By Deke Sharon You're young, you're scrappy. You want to be the best. You started singing in school, like everyone: choir, maybe a couple musicals. Karaoke with some friends, talent shows. Then some collegiate a cappella. But you don't want to just be fine. That's not enough. You want to be great. You want technique, you want moves. You need to learn karate...except contemporary a cappella doesn't have a traditional refined martial art...does it? It does. It's called Barbershop. And you're about to get the best schooling a young'un can, including: BLEND: There's no blend like a barbershop blend. They don't just match their vowels, they align their diphthongs as they sweep from one vowel to the next. Four guys sounding like one guy. Why does blend matter? Because each vowel has a very specific "fingerprint" — frequencies in the harmonic series— and when the vowels are perfectly aligned, it helps lock down... TUNING: You think four voices can only create four notes? Guess again. When you lock your voices into perfect tune with the same vowels you cannot only create additional notes above yours, you can even create the perception of a bass note below the human vocal range. That's right, that's the vocal equivalent of some kind of dark arts ninja magic. But it works, and it happens every day, along with... DYNAMICS: Pop music on the radio has had the life squashed out of it. Learn how to sing quieter than you thought you could, and make a group sound that's louder than you have, without microphones.

  • Abstract Phd a Cappella Arraning English
    Abstract: „Contemporary A Cappella - Arranging and Producing“ My PhD-thesis gives an insight into contemporary a cappella arranging. It focuses on two a cappella groups of the United States who emerged from the a cappella boom since the foundation of Contemporary A Cappella Society by Deke Sharon in the year 1991. Both Groups, each won the a cappella casting show The Sing off - Pentatonix in 2011 and Home Free in 2012 - and started/continued their career as professional a cappella singers. I will mainly focus on the arrangements of Pentatonix and Home Free in terms of writing- and production process and in what way the Music is released as media (CD, Spotify, iTunes, music video and sheet music). By using music analysis I am trying to understand how the arrangements of the above mentioned groups are processed and what techniques they use. With this knowledge I plan to explore these ideas via qualitativ empirical methods in the field of contemporary a cappella: interviews with arrangers, producers and a cappella singers, participating observation through camps, rehearsals and concerts, and being part of production-, mixing- and mastering sessions with the a cappella groups, arrangers and audio engineers. After gathering these informations I’m planing to transform them into a (german) „how to…“-guide for music teachers and conductors to create their own arrangement „in the style of …“. My central aim is to combine popular music research with music pedagogy to feed back knowledge I achieved to the actors in the field. Keywords: a cappella, arrangement, contemporary, popular music, Pentatonix, Home Free Max Stadler is a professional a cappella arranger, singer and conductor.
