Barbershop 101
Do you love music? Then you’ve come to the right organization. Sweet Adelines International takes singing to the next level—not simply a single melody but rather four-part, a cappella harmony—music created from four different voice parts that beautifully blend into one chord. Stunning and challenging, all in one!
Barbershop singing is one of the trickiest yet most rewarding accomplishments of a vocal ensemble. Imagine this: you’re singing a song with three other harmonizing ladies, each hitting the perfect pitch when bam—you hear it. An overtone vibration, a resonant ring, a different sound than any one tone being sung by any one singer! This overtone produces a visceral experience and is unique only to four-part barbershop harmonies!
Singing barbershop offers significant physical, mental, and social benefits, including improved breath control, better posture, stress reduction, enhanced memory, and strong community bonds, all while developing vocal skills and providing emotional release through rich, resonant harmonies and collaborative performance.
