Me: bass or baritone. You: bass (if I'm baritone), baritone (if I'm bass), lead, or tenor--times three. I love the rich, dense blend of closely harmonized voices a cappella. And I wonder aloud: Might I really find three other guys around here to form a barbershop quartet with, for the sake of our own entertainment? (Primarily for that sake, that is--if people liked us enough to throw money, I wouldn't duck.) If not a traditional barbershop quartet, then perhaps something with mixed men's and women's voices? I guess even a little less or more than four-person membership would be possible in that case (depending on the availability of sheet music). I carry a tune strongly, harmonize well, play decent (rehearsal) piano, and have outstanding general musicianship. I warn you, though, that I have no experience accessing vocal sheet music of the barbershop kind. HOWEVER, I _am_ well prepared to handle fame. Ray Ubinger, Durham rcu@acpub.duke.edu
