WE ARE AVON HARMONY A CAPPELLA CHOIR.
Avon Harmony Chorus is among the longest-running women's barbershop a cappella choirs in the UK, formed in 1975 in Bristol (take a look at our History Page). We are an adult women's choir, welcoming people of all ages and singing experiences who want to sing and perform..
Our choir enters the annual LABBS national barbershop competition in the October Half-Term and performs at regular events throughout the year, including Weddings, Concerts, Varied Events, and much more.
WHAT DO WE SING?
We sing a variety of music from songs from the Movies, West End shows, Contemporary Music, Pop, Retro, and Classic to classic barbershop music. From modern pop, such as A cappella, 80s covers, and 40s Swing, we have something for everyone to entertain and delight our audiences.
BARBERSHOP STYLE- MORE THAN A CHOIR!
Barbershop music consists of four unaccompanied parts. The melody is consistently sung by the LEAD line, with the TENOR part harmonizing above the melody line, the BASS part singing the lowest harmonizing line, and the BARITONE completing the chord.
These parts can either be sung by individuals to create a quartet or by numerous voices, so forming a chorus of singers. This close harmony is easily recognisable as the unique barbershop sound.
OUR SINGING PASSION THAT YOU CAN SHARE
We love what we do and want to take the world by storm by booking us, watching us and joining us. We need a wide range of women and those who identify as women. All voices are welcome - young and older, women committed to doing their best, who can hold a tune (or are not sure and are willing to learn!), and who want to come on the fun choir adventure with us. It's a safe, fun space to sing whatever your ability. Please look at our Join Us page for more information, or give Mary (MD) a ring at 07954 170532.
Avon Harmony A cappella choir rehearses every Thursday evening at Glenfrome Primary School from 7.30-9.45 pm. The perfect bristol choir local and near me.
