	Barbershop music - enyclopaedia article about Barbershop music
		Barbershop harmony is a style of unaccompanied vocal music characterized by consonant four-part chordss for every melody note in a predominantly homophonic texture.
		Barbershop music features songs with understandable lyrics and easily singable melodies, whose tones clearly define a tonal center and imply major and minor chords and barbershop (dominant and secondary dominant) seventh chords that resolve primarily around the circle of fifths, while making frequent use of other resolutions.
		Barbershop singers adjust pitches to achieve perfectly tuned chords in just intonation while remaining true to the established tonal center.

	Trumpet Music - Waddell Editions - Brass Quintet Arranger
		The arias chosen adapt well to the brass quintet idiom and are generally lighthearted, as the comical CD cover implies.
		The quintet literature is filled with music from the opera repertoire, and although some of the pieces chosen have been arranged several times (e.g., Bizet's Carmen), the Boston Brass renditions are imaginative and well scored.
		The quintet was held together throughout the concert by the performance of Randy Montgomery on tuba, who demonstrated the total range of the instrument with a talent which was nearly flawless.

	CASA - the contemporary a cappella society
		Still only knowing barbershop harmony, but realizing its limited appeal to the general masses, the brothers began expanding their repertoire to include not only 30s and 40s Swing tunes, but 50s Doo Wop, as well as, a few more contemporary acappella tunes.
		The group's base of operations was concurrently moved from Orange County, California to Phoenix, Arizona and the resultant quintet regrouped and continued on, with Kevin and Lynn adding two guitars to the mix.
		The group's move to Branson along with the new performing schedule enabled Barry, Kevin, Lynn, Jak, Owen and Curtis to settle down, as it were, and be at home with their wives and children on a daily basis--a much-awaited and welcome change.

	Billboard.com - Biography - The Osmonds
		Following the breakout success of the Jackson 5 in 1970, it was practically inevitable that a pre-existing quintet of brothers, who had already enjoyed almost a decade in the national spotlight, would follow them to teen idol superstardom.
		At this point, the brothers chiefly sang barbershop harmony, mixing some gospel tunes into their repertoire as well.
		The Osmonds were signed on as regular nighttime performers, and luck smiled on them just a few weeks later when the father of popular singer -- and newly minted variety show host -- Andy Williams caught their act and recommended them to his son.

	Barbershop quintet - Barbershopquintet
		Barbershop harmony, as codified during the barbershop revival era (1940s-present), is a style of unaccompanied vocal music characterized by consonant four-part chords for every melody note in a predominantly homophonic texture.
		What sets barbershop apart from other musical styles is the predominant use of the dominant-type seventh chords, which are however not true dominant seventh chords, but justly tuned otonal tetrads; where for example the voices are at frequencies in the proportion 4:5:6:7.
		Barbershop singing is performed both by men's and women's groups; the elements of the barbershop style and the names of the voice parts are the same for both.

		Barbershop harmony, as codified during the barbershop revival era (1940s-present), is a style of a cappella, or unaccompanied vocal music characterized by consonant four-part chords for every melody note in a predominantly homophonic texture.
		What sets barbershop apart from other musical styles is the predominant use of the dominant-type seventh chords, which are however not typical tempered dominant seventh chords, but justly tuned otonal tetrads; where for example the voices are at frequencies in the proportion 4:5:6:7, thus matching the harmonics of the voices quite accurately.
		Artistic singing in the barbershop style exhibits a fullness or expansion of sound, precise intonation, a high degree of vocal skill, and a high level of unity of phrasing and consistency of tone within the ensemble.
