Akron Derbytown Chorus

Akron Derbytown Chorus

Mixed Barbershop Chorus

Based in Akron, OH

The Akron Chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society, with its quartets, its Akron Derbytown Chorus and its Matinee Singers mini-chorus, promotes the Barbershop style of singing and strives to be active in and support worthy causes in Akron and surrounding areas.

The first meeting of the Akron Chapter of the Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barber Shop Quartet Singing in America (SPEBSQSA) was held on March 9, 1939 at the Akron City Club. A quartet contest was sponsored on April 7 at the Akron Armory with a first prize of $250. The prize money was applied to the expenses of the winning quartet at the annual convention held in Tulsa that year. There is no record of who the first winner was.
