Missoula's Own Barbershop Harmony Chorus

Members -- The Rocky Mountainaires Chorus is one of 812 official chapters of The Barbershop Harmony Society.  The chorus currently numbers between fifteen and twenty active members and our goal is to double that number over the next few years. 

Our Director -- is John Rettenmayer, long time member of the Society, recently returned to the Rocky Mountainaires. Currently a district officer working with directors, education and schooling in the Evergreen district, he brings much barbershop experience, including on the International stage, to our chorus.

Serious and Fun -- Yes, we can be both and our guys definitely have fun, particularly when the chorus is singing well and everyone is energized.   Our goal is to sing good music and sing it well.   That's when audiences really enjoy what we do.  We are serious about having a good time singing and that means being serious about good singing.

Performances -- Each year the chorus presents a stage show, usually in the fall. We feature the chorus and chapter quartets, many local talented performers, guest singers, quartets, and instrumentalists. In addition, throughout the year we perform at community gatherings, conventions, meetings, banquets, etc. in the Missoula area, the Bitterroot Valley, and even in the Polson area.

Non-profit Support -- The Rocky Mountainaires is a non-profit organization and we use much of our income to support youth musicians and musical groups through scholarships and grants.
