Spinnaker Chorus Quartets

As members of Spinnaker Chorus we are encouraged to develop our vocal and performance skills at every opportunity. An excellent way to do this is by singing in quartet groups which improves confidence in your individual part, whilst perfecting harmonies, pitch, tuning and blending with the other parts in the group.

We are very lucky to have a number of superb quartets within Spinnaker ranging from beginners to more experienced groups.

A Pitch In Time

Tracy-Tenor, Mary-Lead, Jo-Bari, Elspeth-Bass
All Spinnakerettes, we formed in 2019 with a slightly different line up with Jane as our leading lady whose vast experience of barbershop singing and performance shaped us as a quartet. Due to personal ambitions Jane decided to stand down in 2020 and we auditioned the fabulous Mary (also a Spinnakerette) who then joined us as our new Lead.
Mary says “I’m Absolutely delighted to be the new Lead for the lovely Pitches. My first experience of barbershop was in 1990 when I joined The Pitchpipers….a great fun introduction to the genre and I have been barbershopping ever since. I also sang with Bognor Regis based Arun Sounds for more than 10 years, then came back closer to home and joined Spinnaker”
I have previous experience of quarteting and competed at IABS, many years ago, with ‘Dazzle’ .
We’re so excited for the future, to having lots of fun, evolving and developing, learning and performing together in our new line up.

Truly Medley Deeply

Mary (Tenor), Nicolette (Lead), Kath (Bass) and Jill (Baritone) are a relatively newly formed quartet. We love to sing barbershop classics and a cappella music and are gradually building up our repertoire with arrangements of Frank Sinatra, Charles Trenet and Eva Cassidy songs amongst our current favourites. Singing in quartet is great fun and we learn so much from each other, and from the singing coaches we work with, to develop our technique and the unity of our sound. We enjoy singing to small audiences and entering local music festivals.

We are not currently available for hire.
