If you love to sing and perform, this is the chorus for you.
We are extremely friendly and supportive, and have a wonderful time
while we make beautiful music together. We are based in Orillia but we come from many different communities; Barrie, Huntsville, Bracebridge, Gravenhurst and Coldwater.
No music training is required. We will teach you all about a cappella singing in the barbershop style.
As long as you can sing in tune, you can sing barbershop.
We perform frequently in the community, staging an annual show and a Christmas community sing-along. We perform for special functions as well as visit retirement homes.
We welcome women of all ages at any time of year.

The "Harmony Creed" is really our "Norms" and sets forth how we

whenever we're together.
