Chorus posts opportunity to try barbershop singing

The Vocal Harmonix chorus will host a lecture and lab series for three weeks, beginning Monday, Jan. 13, 2025, at Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church, 1905 Broad St., East Petersburg. Women and girls of all ages are invited to learn about singing a cappella in the barbershop style and will have an opportunity to sing with the chorus. Master director Lori Jo Whitehaus will lead the program. 

The topics will include vocal production, breathing, alignment, and how barbershop is unique on Jan. 13; phonation, resonation, articulation, diphthongs, and tuning on Jan. 20; and performance, or storytelling through song, on Jan. 27. Each day, the lecture will be from 6:30 to 7:15 p.m., and the lab portion will be from 7:15 to 8:30 p.m. Attendees are welcome to stay until the end of rehearsal at 9:30 p.m.
