Nelson Bays Harmony is a group of women who sing for pleasure and perform with passion! The chorus currently has about 40 singers, of all ages and backgrounds.
We sing unaccompanied 4-part harmony, barbershop style. Barbershop music is arranged to produce beautiful ringing chords that are a buzz to sing and to listen to! Our repertoire includes well-known ballads, barbershop classics, modern songs. We also sing numerous Christmas carols!
