Tags and more tags!
It's "tag heaven" at HCNW! It's not the least bit unusual to hear groups of men and women singing tags every evening, between classes and during meals. Don't be shy about it; ask them to teach one to you, too!
Don't know any tags? Need to learn "tag etiquette"?? Want to know how to TEACH a tag? Here are those details, as well as some easy tags to start with, courtesy of Darwin Scheel:
You can also find some tags from the Barbershop Harmony Society here!
Harmony College Northwest Music
A big focus of Harmony College Northwest is singing (you'd think we planned it that way!). Whether it's tags, the "weekend song," having one of the visiting quartets sing a number, or just ringing some chords with friends, music reigns supreme.
"I Hear Music / You're Just in Love"
One of the most fun features of Harmony College Northwest is a special, 8-part song arranged just for us by Tom Gentry. "I Hear Music / You're Just In Love" is an upbeat, easy song that both men and women will enjoy singing. Even better, we have learning tracks for you, too, that will be available once you register for the weekend. "Section rehearsals" of the song will be held on Friday afternoon.
Other Music
PDF files of copyright-free songs will soon be available to use
during the weekend. You will be able to print them out and use them during
Harmony College NW. A list will be posted as soon as clearance has
been obtained for all the numbers, so check back often.
Additionally, we plan to have both the US and Canadian National
Anthems available!
Also offered this year: we will have the BHS Barbershop Polecat Books available for sale ($4.50). If you don't have a copy, but sure to pick one up!
