Beelzebubs (Tufts University, US) Delilah (US) Hong Kong Melody Thursday, 29 March 2012 The Hong Kong Country Club 188 Wong Chuk Hang Road, Deep Water Bay, Hong Kong Beelzebubs (Tufts University, US) The Beelzebubs, frequently referred to as "The Bubs", are an all-male a cappella group from Tufts University.

They have toured in Europe, Asia, and North America, and are best known for providing song arrangements and background vocals for the American TV series "Glee". Delilah (US) This all-female a cappella group is widely experienced and greatly talented. These young ladies have been singing across the US over the past couple years and have banded together to prove to the world that an all-female a cappella group can really excel.

  • Producing an a Cappella CD and Development of a Pitch Detection Program
    A Guide to Producing An A Cappella CD and Development of a Pitch Detection Program A Senior Project submitted in partial fulfillment of requirements for the Bachelor of Arts Degree in Liberal Arts and Engineering Studies By Jacob Ray Stringfellow Liberal Arts and Engineering Studies Department College of Engineering California Polytechnic State University San Luis Obispo Spring Quarter, 2012 Abstract An in-depth look at the steps required to produce a CD for an a cappella group. From what microphone and preamplifiers to use, to what steps to take during the editing, mixing, and mastering processes. Finished with a look at pitch detection algorithms and how they work, and a little bit of experimentation with my own algorithm and program. 1. Introduction We live in a world that is filled with music. This music comes in different varieties ranging from hip-hop and rap to country and classical. One genre of music that seems to be on the rise now a day is that of a cappella, or singing without instruments. With shows such as America’s Got Talent showcasing collegiate a cappella groups, and shows like the Sing Off that focus on a cappella singing, it seems that collegiate a cappella groups are reaching a peak in popularity. With a cappella groups being formed, and music being performed, there is also a rising demand to record their music. This presents an interesting challenge. Getting your a cappella group’s song recorded professionally can be costly, and on college student budgets it can be hard to afford. That being said, I suggest that there is a solution to this problem.

  • Leading Congregational Singing Song/Hymn Leading Is an Important
    Leading Congregational Singing LEADING AS A VOCALIST - Joyce Poley DEVELOPING A STYLE Song/hymn leading is an important skill that can make an enormous difference to the way a congregation sings. If the song leader is primarily a vocalist, there are a number of qualities that are important for success: having enthusiasm for singing; being able to establish a good rapport with the congregation; being comfortable with your own voice; having accurate pitch and a pleasing vocal quality; being excited about introducing new ideas and repertoire. These attributes will help ensure a good singing experience for both the leader and the congregation. Song/hymn leaders use a variety of approaches when leading the congregation, and no single approach or style is “right”. What is important is to develop a style that is unique to your own personality and comfort level. The following are some things to consider: • Energy & enthusiasm Probably nothing affects your success as a song leader as much as your own energy and enthusiasm. People respond to those who love what they do; enthusiasm truly is contagious. Those who already enjoy singing will simply become even more enthusiastic; those who are more reluctant, or feel they can’t sing, will want to be a part of all this positive energy. The more encouragement they get from the leader, the better they will sing. The better they sing, the more confident they become, and the more willing to try new things. Enjoy yourself and be at ease, and they will journey almost any distance with you into the music.
