MUSICAL DIRECTOR

NICK DREW

Nick joined One Acchord as Musical Director in January 2009 and is still here - he must like us!

​

When not acting as Musical Director for One Acchord Nick also sings Barbershop with Rolling Hills Chorus and also competes as part of a quartet.

​

We are always amazed when Nick demonstrates each part - especially the high Tenor line!

LEADS

Leads normally sing the melody, however they can sometimes harmonise with other parts. Their range is sung between the A below middle C to the C above middle C.

BARITONES

The Baris sing approximately the same range as the leads. The baritone harmony notes cross the lead notes, sometimes sung below and sometimes above.

TENORS

Tenors harmonise above the lead and should complement but not overpower the lead with a light, sweet, pure tinkling tone.The tenor range is from G above middle C to high F on the top line of the clef. 

BASS

Bass singers sing the lowest harmonising notes and should  be able to easily sing the E flat below middle C to the G above middle C.

Basses create a rich mellow tone which creates a solid foundation for the four part harmony chord.
