CCC at RMD Competition October 2022

0

CCC competed in the Rocky Mountain District chorus competition Saturday October 8th 2022

We sang two songs, 'A Wink And A Smile' and 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow'

We have been rehearsing these songs for several months now - it all seemed to be over in a flash, but we did our best and were proud of our performance.

(results will be posted when they are released)

We particularly want to thank John and Jerry for all the blood, sweat and tears they put into shaping up the two songs 

Congratulations to Drew Lubeck on his first time singing in public with the chorus!

The Not-So-Dying Art of the Barbershop Quartet

1

One of the great apple-pie traditions of American music, right up there with a marching band or Dixieland band, is the good old barbershop quartet. My mind goes right to those white gazebos in parks and town squares and those beribboned straw hats, big mustaches, and striped jackets that barbershop quartets typically sport.

While thinking about the famous Buffalo Bills, the quartet who sang “Lida Rose” in “The Music Man” movie (the subject of my last Epoch Times article), I began to wonder whether barbershop quartets still exist in America, or if it’s a dead or dying art form?
