The following
list contains titles for the men’s section of the choir. All are
TTBB with the melody (lead) in the second tenor voice with the first
tenor harmony above, barbershop style.
The first tenor
is best sung falsetto, rather than in full voice. First tenor parts
may be sung by an alto who knows how to blend with male voices.
These pieces are excellent for a young male quartet or larger male
ensemble. They are primarily secular, and ideal for social, or
other, non-worship events.
Around The
Christmas Tree
CC 719 - Words,
Music and Arrangement by Burt Szabo. The music celebrates the
seasonal joys at home with your loved ones. (1 to 3) Same as CC 319
Deck The Halls
CC 709 - This
setting of the familiar holiday song is a bit challenging, but fun.
Lots of fa la la’s in quick rhythm will keep the singers on their
toes. (2 to 3) Same as CC 309
Goodnight
Ladies
CC 706 - A
tribute to the ladies in your audience. The second chorus is
designed for a performance by 2 groups of singers, but could easily
be handled by 1 group, taking some parts sotto voce. (1 to
2) Same as CC 306
I Love You
Truly

special occasion, perhaps a birthday or anniversary, or for all the

My Soul

arrangement of this well known hymn. (1 to 3)
Jingle Bells
CC 716 - This
song first appeared in 1857 and its popularity has remained through
the years. It’s a staple of the holiday season songs. Not the
usual bland treatment. Some unexpected rhythmic devices contribute
to the fun. A bit of a challenge. (3 to 5) Same as CC 316
Let Me Call
You Sweetheart
CC 723 - A
tribute to those celebrating a special day, or just for the pleasure
of reminding the ladies how much we care. (2 to 3)

end a pre-Christmas social gathering. (1 to 2) Same as CC 303

Love At Home
