Edito de 1993 International Barbershop Chorus Contest - Final Round - Volume 3Each year the Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barber Shop Quartet Singing in America, Inc. (SPEBSQSA), now known as the Barbershop Harmony Society, holds a convention and competition at which barbershop quartets and choruses from all over the world are invited to attend, participate, compete, and share fellowship in song. In each year since the late 1940s, the Barbershop Harmony Society has archived recordings of these competitions. Now, through the technological marvels of the Internet and the tireless efforts of the a cappella visionaries at Naked Voice Records, the Barbershop Harmony Society is now able to digitize this vast archive, preserve it for the future, and make it readily available worldwide. The track or tracks through which you have obtained these liner notes are actual live recordings of the quartet or chorus identified in the metadata incorporated with the track that were made during the annual competition in the year stated. These tracks are not cobbled together pieces of studio cuts but rather pure, unadulterated live performances recorded as they happened with all of the coughs, creaks, sniffles, whistles, hoots and hollers that go with such performances. We hope you enjoy the music and artistry contained in these varied examples of one of the truly American art forms.
