  • HISTORY of BARBERSHOP Compiled by David Wright
    HISTORY OF BARBERSHOP compiled by David Wright Lesson 4: REVIVAL Music of the thirties. By the late thirties, the kinds of songs that were woodshed had become a thing of the past. Harmonies had become even more sophisticated with the advent of the big band sound, in which avoidance of "obvious" chording prevailed. The major chord was replaced by the sixth, major seventh, or even more obscure substitutes; the dominant was replaced by minor seventh, diminished, or tritone substitute. We should note that the old style didn't vanish altogether. In certain haunts one could still hear the happy sound of the old ragtime style of earlier times, which characterized the "barbershop" era. One musician who thrived on this music into the forties was the great Thomas E. ("Fats") Waller, who composed, sang, and played stride piano in the old style. Although the songs he wrote himself show some of the "swing" influences of the thirties ("Honeysuckle Rose" (1929), "Ain't Misbehavin'" (1929)), many of the songs he popularized were of the style of the twenties, like "It's A Sin To Tell A Lie" (1936) and "(Oh Susanna) Dust Off That Old Piano" (1934). One of his best recordings was "Dinah," recorded in 1935. (In 1978 the musical revue "Ain't Misbehavin'" appeared on Broadway, featuring the music of Fats Waller.) Owen C. Cash. Owen Clifton Cash, born 1892, was a man who had been profoundly influenced by the musical customs of the early 1900's, the tradition of singing popular music with woodshedded harmony. He was the son of a Baptist minister, who moved the family westward by wagon from northern Missouri (where Cash was born) to the town of Keytesville in Cherokee Indian Territory, later to become part of Oklahoma.

  • History of Barbershop
    HISTORY OF BARBERSHOP By David Krause and David Wright Definition of barbershop harmony. Read: Definition of Barbershop Harmony, from the Forward of the Contest and Judging Handbook. The Purpose Of This Course. We will attempt to trace the roots and the evolution of barbershop harmony from well before its actual beginnings up to the present. We will try to answer these questions: What were the tides of history which spawned the birth of the barbershop quartet, and what environment allowed this style of music to flourish? What were its musical forerunners? What are its defining characteristics? What other types of music were fostered contemporaneously, and how did they influence the growth of quartet singing? Which styles are similar, and how are they similar? How did the term "barbershop" arise? How long did the historical era of the barbershop quartet last? What other kinds of music sprang forth from it? Why did the style eventually need preservation? How was SPEBSQSA formed, and how did it become a national movement? What other organizations have joined the cause? How have they coped with the task of preservation? Are current day efforts still on course in preserving the style? How has the style changed since the Society was formed? We will spend the next few hours contemplating and attempting to answer these questions. Overtones. As barbershoppers, we are very conscious of the "ringing" effect which complements our singing. We consider it our reward for singing well- defined pitches in tune. The fact that a tone produced by a voice or an instrument is accompanied by a whole series of pitches in addition to the fundamental one which our ear most easily detects has been known for centuries.

Feb. 24 to Mar. 3, 2019 Harmony on the Harmony 2.0 Cruise and sing with Tony De Rosa, Deke Sharon, & VOCTAVE Come join us for a week-long cruise on the Harmony of the Seas as we sing with two of the best a cappella coaches in the world. We sing for the whole ship! Don’t miss out! Reserve your spot now: CruisenSing.com • 855-627-8473 WELCOME TO I’m thrilled that you can join us for what I believe will be remembered as one of several milestone conventions in our history! Our inauspicious start began 80 years ago as an inward-facing group of men who gathered to sing for their own personal enjoyment. We grew over the next two decades but only began outreach efforts to impact lives other than our own in 1959, when we established Harmony Foundation. We continued to focus our charitable efforts externally by supporting therapy for autistic youth until the late 1990s, and only began our “modern” journey circa 2003 with Harmony Foundation supporting Society singing programs such as the program that has grown into the wildly successful Youth Chorus Festival, noted for facilitating truly intergenerational singing. Fast forward to 2017, when more than two years of member feedback and strategic planning efforts culminated in the announcement of our new vision, “Everyone in Harmony.” Since adopting the Everyone in Harmony vision, the Society Board and Harmony Hall staff have been working diligently to design and begin implementation of programs aligned to the vision.

  • Paradigm Shift
    FG1299 Självständigt arbete, grundnivå inom lärarprogram (musik som ämne 2), 15 hp Ämneslärarexamen med inriktning mot arbete i gymnasieskolan 2019 Institutionen för musik, pedagogik och samhälle (MPS) Handledare: Annika Falthin Rasmus Krigström Paradigm Shift The musical developement of barbershop harmony between 1939-2018. Preface This might seem more like a disclaimer than a preface, but I would like to state the following: This study is not about finding out who, or what group, contributed most to the evolution of the barbershop style during its eighty years on the contest stage, it is simply when and how it changed; that is the focus. Any example, notated or sound-clip, that is used is chosen more or less at random, because all groups – every single champion quartet – has something unique that is worth mentioning, and there were too many good examples, so I had to just choose. I would also like to thank everyone who helped me along the way, especially Michael Slamka for the rich contribution of recordings of early quartets, Kevin Keller for guidance and document researching, Ben Ayling for his dissertation of the twenty-five first champs, and David Wright for his material in barbershop history and for simply being David Wright. ii Sammanfattning Barbershopkvartettsång har sedan mitten av 1800-talet vuxit fram som en unik genre med rötter i USA. År 1938 startades en organisation med målet att bevara genren, som då höll på att dö ut. Ett år efter att organisationen startade började man hålla årliga tävlingar för att kora den bästa kvartetten, dessa tävlingar har nu pågått i åttio år och de har spelat en viktig roll för att hålla genren i god vigör.
