Education
Alongside sharing our music, we are deeply passionate about exploring the intricacies of a cappella singing. Vocal training is an essential part of our chorus rehearsals and plays a crucial role in our overall choral experience. Throughout the year, our members receive guidance from a visiting master in the art of barbershop, who shares various techniques and tricks of the trade that we incorporate into our performances.
