The Sweet Adelines and The Lustre Quartet Explain The Barbershop Quartet!
Members of The Sweet Adelines and the Lustre Quartet join us for this week's Please Explain, which is all about barbershop quartets! Peggy Gram joined The Sweet Adelines, the women’s barbershop organization, in her teens, and is a 50-year member of the group. Jennifer Harris, Kathryn Morrical, Lori Crouter, and Lori Dreyer formed the Lustre Quartet in 2005, and have been a top-10 international quartet since 2012. They will be joined by Gage Averill, an ethnomusicologist and Dean of Arts at the University of British Columbia. He’s also the author of Four Parts, No Waiting: A Social History of American Barbershop Quartet.
