Who are Hallmark of Harmony?
Hallmark of Harmony are a Sheffield-based barbershop chorus with a mission to entertain and delight audiences. Formed in 1978, we are the six-time UK chorus champions of the British Association of Barbershop Singers, and are known for our close-harmony singing, high musical standard, and inclusive atmosphere. We perform all over the country in concerts, festivals, and competitions. We are an amateur choir, full of ordinary men from all walks of life, who love to sing in harmony. We don’t take ourselves too seriously and rehearsals are always social and fun before anything else!

What is barbershop?
Barbershop is a style of four-part, close-harmony, a cappella singing. Originating in America, you may think of barbershop quartets in pin-striped suits: the Dapper Dans or The Be-Sharps from the Simpsons. A barbershop chorus is basically one giant barbershop quartet, with lots of people singing each part!
