grannypat Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Hi, I was a member of "Sweet & Low" the Sheffield ladies Barbershop Chorus for a few years during the late 80s. It was great being a part of such a good chorus as they were. Barbershop singing is really fantastic and I can recommend it. If you have never heard it sung live then you don't know what you're missing. The men's barbershop chorus in Sheffield used to be absolutely fantastic - don't know if they still are or even if they still exist.

CeeBeeBee Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I think the mens choir was called Hallmark of Harmony one of our friends used to be a member. I think they travelled allover giving concerts and also made records Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
me-and-pippo Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I think the mens choir was called Hallmark of Harmony one of our friends used to be a member. I think they travelled allover giving concerts and also made records I remeber 'Hallmark of Harmony' performing at the Ball Inn, Myrtle Road.

grannypat Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Yup you're right they were called Hallmark of Harmony. They were over a hundred strong at one point and so decided to split into two separate choruses. To be in the same room when the full chorus was singing was absolutely mind-blowing. That's the thing with Barbershop singing, when they ring a chord it's a wonderful sound. I really miss it. Wish they would come down and do a gig in Dorset.
