Tom Watson and Barbershop Tags

Tom Watson recently posted an excellent youtube rendition of a walk in the black forest. That is a tune I need to get the form for some time. I normally do chords substantially in the left hand, however.

My preferred source of youtube unusual music is mainly barbershop tags. I suppose it fits into an age in which things don't require a lot of concentration. Some of the more interesting tags involve people individually doing a multitrack recording with video. A creative video novelty is This one

This is quite a good example of a multitrack, but although it has a lot of hits the harmony is not as good as others with a relatively traditional cadence at the end.


This again is relatively traditional


If I get some time I will try to highlight some really good ones (musically), but it is worth rummaging the search engines for barbershop tags multitrack or not.

I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing; and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization. But has to have been originated by someone. The web link shown goes through the derivation which appears to be more linked to an anonymous British Soldier WW2 than any Roman or Greek General called by a name perming 2 out of (Gaius, Galus, Petronius and Arbiter).
