Ah yes. I’m both grateful and perhaps embarrassed not to have really know who he was, though I’d heard of him and his sort before, along with pings of his recent fuckery in my news feed. Everybody’s goin to the ground and the guy sure looks like plant food to me…

I know the next line in that song- quite the banger.

May I request a quick summary on how they connect for you? And I’ll be interested to read up myself and compare notes… 🎸

Barbershop began in North America by the late 19th century, one of the precursors of jazz out of the improvisatory singing traditions of African Americans. Its roots are in spirituals and work songs, traditions kept alive by enslaved Africans whose instruments were banned.

Ok I was wrong! A chorus is an ensemble of singers that may include dancers or actors. So bbs groups are choruses because they have choreography, I guess. Church ensembles are choirs, though- even though dancing and movement may occur.

Glad to crack that case. Thanks for the mind cleanse lol

If I were to guess, I’d say that “chorus” is the ensemble designated to sing the chorus parts of a larger work. Choir is an ensemble of 8 or more singers that sing together independently. Now I will look it up…
