Get your barbershop fix from iTunes
Now you can legally purchase barbershop performances from iTunes.
Updated: 7/27/2006 2:21:16 PM
The first wave of iTunes content from the Barbershop Harmony Society became available in June 2006, and there are now nearly 1,000 tracks online.
How do I access this content and begin downloading barbershop music?
1. Download and install the free iTunes software. www.apple.com offers clients for Windows 2000 or XP, and Mac OS X v10.2.8 or v10.3.4 or later.
You do not need an iPod™ portable device to listen to purchased tracks on your computer– however, you cannot transfer from iTunes to other manufacturers' portable devices.
2. Create an Apple Music Store ID. (AOL users can use an AOL ScreenName)
3. Search for barbershop contest music. Our recommended iTunes search in the "Search Music Store" window in the upper right hand corner of the iTunes screen is "barbershop contest". Based upon our catalog structure, this will bring up all of the BHS catalog then available, both quartet and chorus. To narrow your search, you can also use "barbershop quartet contest" or "barbershop chorus contest.
Viewing the entire catalog may require scrolling through several screens. Although the summary in the bottom center of the iTunes window may indicate 150 songs, clicking "More results" in the bottom right corner will refresh the screen with the next 150 tracks.
4. Click on a track title to hear a sample.
5. Buy. Get a single track for $0.99 cents, or a 12-song "volume" of a particular contest session for $9.99
6. Listen … sing along while commuting!
