Men's Barbershop Quartet Arrangements
The following are the results of an ongoing research project to identify
and locate books and single song sheets of men's barbershop arrangements
which have been printed over the years. Suggestions and comments are always
welcome. Please e-mail me at
sillsdrew at gmail dot com.
----Drew Sills, member of S.P.E.B.S.Q.S.A./B.H.S. (Frank H. Thorne chapter)
Please note that I am NOT a sheet music dealer.
Please see note above as to the purpose of this web page. I have
received a number of inquiries from people trying to place orders,
asking how much a certain arrangement costs, etc. If your
goal is to purchase sheet music of barbershop arragements, try
the sheet music section of
Harmony Marketplace,
singers.com,
or a-capella.com.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: Special thanks to Casey Parker, my
barbershopping mentor, for his help and
encouragement in this project. Casey is the historian, archivist, and curator of
the HARMONY ARCHIVES, a huge collection of recordings and printed music of
the great old songs as performed by close harmony quartets. Casey's many activities include the publication of Harmony Song
Guide and Harmony Record Guide, which lists thousands of barbershop
arrangements and recordings respectively. Additionally, Casey publishes the
GUBOQS Gazette, a publication of the GUBOQS (Get Us Back Our QUARTET Society)
Group, dedicated to the interchange of ideas on restoring quartetting to the Barbershop
Harmony Society. For more information, please e-mail him at caseypar@garlic.com.

Some may have noticed that I have not been keeping up so well with new releases by BHS over the last
few years. Joe Liles has been kind enough to send me a pdf file containing
all of the Music Premiere releases by SBEBSQSA/BHS from 1996-2008.
As time permits, I hope to eventually merge the data in this file into the appropriate linked html
files above. Many thanks, Joe!
