HCNW Songs
Another fun feature of Harmony College Northwest is a special, 8-part song arranged just for HCNW by Tom Gentry!
"I Hear Music / You're Just In Love" is a fun, easy song that both men and women will enjoy singing. Even better, we have learning tracks for you, too, that will be available once you register for the weekend. "Section rehearsals" of the song will be held on Friday afternoon.
In addition, the sheet music will be available for several other songs--polecats and SAI standards--so you can grab three of your newest best friends and sing away!
Still more singing!
It's "tag heaven" at HCNW! It's not the least bit unusual to hear groups of men and women singing tags every evening, between classes and during meals. Don't be shy about it; ask them to teach one to you, too!
Quartets will entertain you with a song from their repertoire at the drop of a hat...all you have to do is ask!
And when all else fails, see if anyone around knows a polecat song or an SAI regional song. There's got to be SOMETHING you all know!
Shows and Special Events
You didn't think you'd be sitting in a classroom the whole time, did you?!? We have several exciting events to attend during HCNW.
Friday Night Show
Kicking off the weekend is our terrific Friday night show, featuring guest faculty members Max Q, the 2007 Barbershop Harmony Society's Championship Quartet! Also joining them will be Mojo, the 2010 Eighth Place SAI Quartet, and FastTrack, the 2009 Evergreen District Quartet Champions. This year the show will be held on the UPS campus in the Schneebeck Auditorium. Best of all: your registration to Harmony College comes with a ticket to the show! Additional tickets for guests will go on sale closer to the event.
Saturday Night
You
came to sing, right? Saturday Night at HCNW is your chance.
Stop by the Wheelock Student Center Rotunda on Saturday night around 9pm for some singing, some tagging, and some more singing! You'll be able to hear HCNW quartets, join groups in singing the workshop's songs together, and grab a snack! Catch up with friends and share notes about your classes.
This is always a fun way to end a busy day, so be sure to drop by.
Harmony Explosion Show
The same weekend that HCNW is being held, young men and women under 25 are also enjoying a weekend of singing at Harmony Explosion, held at nearby Pacific Lutheran University. The camp puts on a final performance on Saturday evening at 6:30 pm, and you are welcome to attend. Tickets for HX are not included with your registration price, but you will be able to order them in advance as the time gets closer. For more information about Harmony Explosion, visit their website.
