About Velvet Harmony
Velvet Harmony was originally formed by six
enthusiastic women singers in 1976. The chorus has grown considerably
since that time and numbers in its ranks, singers of all ages and
from all walks of life.
The chorus sings unaccompanied, four part harmony and regularly
enjoys sessions of voice coaching, barbershop craft and tuition
by professionals in order to maintain its high standard. As a result
of this, Velvet Harmony is in constant demand for both private and
charitable functions throughout the year and is proud to be one
of the top ten ladies barbershop choruses in the country.
The chorus is affiliated to Making
Music (formerly the National Federation of Music Societies),
Bromley Arts Council and
LABBS, the Ladies Association
of British Barbershop Singers. There are now nearly fifty ladies
barbershop choruses in England and Wales.
