Nelson Bays Harmony has around 40 singers of all ages and backgrounds, and we sing unaccompanied 4-part harmony, in the barbershop style. Barbershop music is arranged to produce beautiful ringing chords that are a buzz to sing and to listen to!
Our repertoire includes modern a cappella songs, show tunes, beautiful ballads, and numerous Christmas carols! Read about booking us to sing at your event!
Call of the Ocean:
The premiere of Call of the Ocean at Nelson Centre of Musical Arts in June 2021 marked the end of a nearly year-long journey of creative collaboration and music-making. As recipients of the 2020-2021 SOUNZ Community Commission, composer Jessie Leov and Nelson Bays Harmony Chorus joined forces to create an original a cappella piece for women’s voices. Read more about our journey here.
Past Events:
You’ve done the home-schooling, Zoom, household chores, all that baking AND the essential work. Now it’s time to find a creative outlet just for YOU!
June 2020 update: We have resumed rehearsals! As long as we are at any level of the current pandemic we will continue to follow government guidelines and the NZ Choral Federation advice found here.
