Toronto Barbershop Quartet 3
This Toronto Barbershop Quartet was formed in 2006. Collectively, these four close friends have over 100 years of vocal harmony experience, including barbershop, jazz, spiritual, community choral and doo wop.
Toronto Barbershop Quartet members
One of the singers began his musical career in a garage band at the tender age of 15. Harmony singing entered his life in 1995 with the Barbershop Harmony Society, in both chorus and quartets; he discovered gospel music around the same time. Two years later, another member joined the Harmony Society with the same chapter and has sung in various quartet combinations, ever since.
The other 2 members of this Toronto Barbershop Quartet each became involved in a cappella quartets in high school in the 50s and, between them, have sung in more than 15 small ensembles quartets, quintets and octets. This quartet is their sixth collaboration since the mid 60s.
Toronto Barbershop Quartet repertoire
The quartet's repertoire includes swing, 50s tribute, gospel and traditional/contemporary a cappella, mostly in the barbershop style. In addition to cabaret and stage shows, corporate and retail events, birthdays, anniversaries and weddings, this Toronto Barbershop Quartet has made a commitment to continuing community service work.
