Barbershop Chorus |
|
||
Barbershop is a style of four-part singing to blend as one voice,
creating full music so that accompanying instruments become unnecessary.
The four parts are tenor, lead, baritone and bass. It is a style of
a cappella, or unaccompanied vocal music. Generally, the lead sings
the melody, the tenor harmonizes above the melody, and the bass sings
the lowest harmonizing notes. The remaining middle notes are provided
by the baritone, who weaves around the lead, abandoning conventional
voice-leading to fill out the harmony and complete four-part chords
and thus creating the beautiful sound unique to Barbershop music.
