Congratulations on making it through 2011! We hope the new year is filled with many great things in store!
Barbershop harmony singing has the friendliest group of singers, the world’s largest men’s singing group, and one of the most elite singing organizations in the world. We heartily welcome you to our 13th Colony Sound (Savannah chapter) blog of the Barbershop Harmony Society. This Society was formed by and for men who liked to sing and wanted to get together with a bunch of guys and sing in quartets. Today we’re still basically a bunch of guys who want to sing; however, if you spend more time with us and really get into this hobby, you’ll find that it’s much more than “just a bunch of guys wanting to sing”.
This is about aspects of the 13th Colony Sound. Maybe you’re thinking and expecting that we just be doing a little singing. If so, you may be in for a surprise. “Barbershopping” is much more than just singing. We do shows, singing Valentines, training young and old, charitable works, gigs (we call sing outs), and the like also. Yes, we do have a female chorus in Savannah! We even have a youth chorus. As a member, audience, Valentine recipient, or just a witness to what we do in Savannah, we’ve no doubt that you’ll soon realize that you’ve found the best singing organization in the world. As an added bonus, be assured that anywhere you travel in the United States and in many foreign countries, if there is a barbershop chapter there, you’ll always be welcomed where Barbershop Harmony Society guy's and gals are.
Thanks for reading our blog for the bog, from right here near the savannah Savannah!
