What's it all about?
For the 31st year running, the British
Association of Barbershop Singers will hold their three-day Harmony
College in August 2009. Primarily for the benefit of members of BABS,
it is, however, open to all. Anyone who sings a cappella harmony, or
any other kind of harmony, would find something of interest in it and
have a wonderful weekend of music and friendship.
|
What is it?
It is an opportunity to sing, have fun and learn more about vocal skills,
rehearsal technique, reading music, arranging, interpretation, visual
aspects of performance and a host of other topics associated with performing
unaccompanied vocal music.
|
Where is it?
It takes place on the Jubilee Campus campus of the University
of Nottingham.
Here is
a map of the campus and links to directions. The map on streetmap.co.uk
does not show the campus (it's too new) but you can see where it is in
the locality.

When is it?
It runs for three days from 8:30am on Friday 28th to lunchtime on Sunday
30th August 2009.
How much is it?
There are a number of accommodation options. Go to the
Prices page for full details.
