Alexandria Harmonizers

Based in Alexandria for nearly seventy years, the Harmonizers are an award-winning men's chorus specializing in four-part a cappella harmony. We have performed at venues such as the White House, Supreme Court, and the Kennedy Center, and on tours in China, France and Germany.

 

Closer to home, the Harmonizers provide a variety of free public performances each year throughout Alexandria. We also maintain an active musical outreach program to local high school students, including our annual Youth Harmony festival.

 

A special project for the Harmonizers in 2017 is exploring the historical roots of barbershop harmony. A uniquely American art form, barbershop shares a common heritage with African-American gospel music and spirituals. As part of this year-long project we are learning gospel songs and are co-hosting this year's GospelFEST with the City of Alexandria in May. We also are bringing to Alexandria -- twice -- the Grammy award-winning gospel quartet The Fairfield Four, who will be performing at several concerts and workshops in the area.

 

Please join us on Spring2ACTion day, April 5, at Virtue Feed and Grain, 106 S. Union St. in Alexandria, from 6-10 pm. We will be singing throughout the evening and enjoying food and drink with our friends and supporters. Thank you, and we hope to see you there!
