  • Annual Report
    2015 ANNUAL REPORT Welcome to Harmony Foundation’s first Harmony Foundation annual report! International In my time as Chair of HFI’s Board of Trustees, I have watched the Foundation grow and evolve into a world-class organization, which excels at bringing the gift of singing to Staff the world. The dedication of the Foundation’s Jim Clark staff and trustees is unparalleled, as is the Regional Director of Development generosity of our donors. We have much to Carolyn Faulkenberry be proud of but much work still to do. Chief Financial Officer This report provides some key facts Connie Harris and figures on the financial health of the Director of Communications Foundation, but we all know that’s only half JJ Hawkins the story. Barbershop is not simply numbers Donor Care Center Associate on a page or trophies on a shelf. It’s a way Photo: J. Demetrie Photography Ryan Killeen of life. It’s a family, and music is what waters Senior Director of Development our family tree. Singing is the lifeblood that flows through us all and binds us together. Hopefully this report tells a bit of that story as well. Sharon Miller Acting President and CEO Each of us has our own reasons for supporting Harmony Foundation International. My family has made Barbershop a lifestyle, and it has been Sarah Ogiba Finance Assistant good to us. The lifelong friendships, the work ethic instilled in our children, a sense of togetherness — all these elements were cultivated through James Pennington Barbershop. I am sure all of you have similar stories to tell, and I believe Donor Care Center Manager others can benefit as we have.

  • Let Freedom Ring!
    Summer 2010 Let Freedom Ring! Barbershopping in Philly by Craig Rigg [The following report is a personal observation and does not reflect the views of the Society or the Illinois District. With luck we’ll face only a few lawsuits.] There’s this moment in the recent barbershop documentary Amer- ican Harmony. Jeff Oxley looks at a monitor as Vocal Spectrum appears on stage during the 2006 quartet contest, singing “Cruella DeVille.” He turns and shakes his head, saying, “The So- ciety’s changing, man.” His sentiments pretty much sum up what the 2010 International Convention and Con- tests at Philadelphia was all about. There’s been a changing of the guard. First, let's take the quartet contest. By now, everybody knows that Storm Front finally got the gold (after much cajoling and trash talk). They are the first comedy oriented quartet since FRED to achieve the pinnacle of quartetting. There’s no doubt these guys can sing; they’re Singing scores put them in second place, bested only by Old School (with Illinois's own Joe Krones at bass). In fact, Old School led after the semi-finals by only 17 points, and OS had won each of the first two rounds. All they had to do was maintain their lead and the gold was theirs. Not to be (a phrase you'll hear again later.) So what did Storm Front do that made the difference? Well, a combination of factors proba- bly did it. First, SF staged one heck of an innovative final set. Their first song, with a bit of mock- ing of Old School and up-and-coming Ringmasters from Sweden, lamented their struggle to reach the top.

  • Metro Presskit-4
    感謝 Special Thanks 團體簡介 Metro Vocal Group 2 尚恩‧ 奧利佛 Sean Oliver 4 凱文‧索爾頓 Kevin Thornton 6 艾立克‧蒙森 Eric Monson 8 邁可‧藍斯 Michael Lance 10 WORKS & REVIEWS 12 Metro Vocal Group 美國無伴奏人聲樂團 Hailed as China’s top a cappella group, Metro is taking the musical world by storm. Their electrifying Chinese and English rep covers every genre from Funk to Rock, Jazz to Pop. At every concert they hit audiences with, what critics have described as, a “wall of sound.” This four-man vocal group is quickly becoming the leader of contemporary a cappella in Asia. With a career spanning 17 years and over 20 million views on Youku and YouTube worldwide, Metro is reigning in a new era of sound. Metro started their career in 1998 singing aboard several ships with Celebrity Cruises. After four years with the fleet, they moved to Tokyo, Japan and performed for Tokyo Disney Sea in the American Waterfront. Their reputation for being exceptional entertainers caught the attention of the directors of Hong Kong Disneyland and in 2005, they were asked to open the park. After two years with the company, Metro made the decision to enter the mainstream music industry and they have never looked back. Since that time, Metro has discovered an entirely different variety of Cantonese and Mandarin music from the last 50 years and now performs some of China’s most beloved songs as well as their own compositions. After recording two trendsetting albums, in English, Cantonese and Mandarin, Metro has established themselves as powerful artists in the Asian music market.
