Artie Dolt on building a chapter
The most recent issue of The Harmonizer featured an article about Friends In Harmony Chorus and their approach to building the culture of their chapter. We spoke with director Artie Dolt this spring and captured his take on what worked for them and keeps members coming back for more.

CAN'T MISS TICKET OF THE WEEK
AIC preview: Vocal Spectrum
Vocal Spectrum was a top notch quartet when they won the gold... and they just keep getting better. With a new album nearly complete, you can bet that their AIC performance will be a stunner!

Make sure to pick up your tickets to see Vocal Spectrum, Instant Classic, Crossroads, and more in Nashville this summer, appearing at the incredible Schermerhorn Symphony Center for two star-studded shows.

BUILDING THE #DREAMTEAM  
Harmony University team adds key staff 
Director of Harmony University Donny Rose has been hard at work putting together an EPIC week for this year's Harmony U students... and now has a little more help!

Wayne Grimmer
On the HU team, I will be taking on tasks of revamping all of our educational materials that we have and find ways to help streamline them for our members, putting my background in music education to work. I will continue my work with the local non-profit, Choral Arts Link, and on an A Cappella Harmony method of instruction to help music educators teach harmony. 

To know that I have an instrumental role in the education of our members in every aspect of our great art form is a role that I take very seriously... I love learning more about music and helping others do the same. I will miss the Outreach team but I will enjoy the doors that Harmony University and music education has opened for me!

Dan (the Intern) Rohovit
I am thrilled, humbled, and honored to announce
 that I have accepted a summer position with the Barbershop Harmony
 Society. I will be working as a member of the Harmony University team in a similar role to my internship last summer. I am beyond grateful and excited to work with such an amazing group once again.

Nashville here I come!
