Great Quartets, Great Chorus,
A Great Show!
The
Canton Chapter's Hall of Fame Chorus is alive and well, thank
you! A very appreciative audience experienced the best of the
chorus on Saturday, April 26th, when the chorus presented it's
64th annual show.
Many of the attendees were heard remarking how well the
chorus sang, and how well the songs and introductions were
staged. Comments like, "That was the best show the chorus has
put on during the past four years", and "Keep up the good
work, we enjoyed the show"
If
you were not in attendance, please mark your calendar on April
25, 2009, when you'll have an a opportunity to witness the next
great Canton show.
Our guest quartets, "4 Way Stop", and "Old School" were well
worth the price of admission. The young men of "4 Way Stop" had
the audience eating out of their hands, with their funny stories
and mighty fine harmonies. "Old School" was a definite hit, what
with their fine lead singer and comic tenor. The audience was
most appreciative of their song selection, as it included many
of the old barbershop standards, songs heard sung back in the
"old" days, hence the name "Old School" More and better things
await these two quartets as they make their way to the
International Competition, for a chance at the gold medal.
The Canton chapter is blessed with several fine quartets of it's
own, and each of them performed admirably on the show. "Keyed
Up" opened the second half of the show, and both "Picture This"
and "Lightly Seasoned", sang in the first half of the bill.
"Picture This" sang a hilarious rendition of "Side By Side", and
"Lightly Seasoned" sang the HOFC radio station break, along with
their song package. We are very proud of how well they
performed, and wish them continued success in the future.
The chorus will now turn it's attention to preparing for it's
next Annual Show, which will also be held at the new Glenoak
Senior High School on April 25, 2009. It promises to be
an exciting evening of fine Barbershop singing, you won't want
to miss. As heard on the radio..."Stay tuned for more great
music"
