Harmony Express Chorus

Contact: Rob Dowling

Chapter information:

Harmony Express. the Germantown, Maryland Chapter of BHS, is a small but lively chorus that meets weekly on Sunday evenings in a convenient Gaithersburg location just blocks from I-270.  Our current Director would like to step back into a singing role, so we are seeking a new Director. The ideal candidate would direct all rehearsals and performances. However, we would consider a rotating schedule, where the Director alternates with our two Assistant Director for rehearsals but the Director assuming overall responsibility for chorus progress.  Our chorus performs about once a month in and around Montgomery County at a variety of venues. We are committed to growing awareness of the barbershop style of singing through free community outreach performances, such as at the County Fair, and through Youth in Harmony events for local high schools.  We are hopeful our new Director will continue our traditions of “fun through excellence” as well as bringing the joy of singing to our community.
