ON THE
COSTA
BLANCA
“LoveNotes” from the USA and

CAPPELLA MAGIC, a concert

de Cultura, Calpe.
Calpe
Almost six hundred singers and
fans of Barbershop will be in Calpe
including visitors from Russia,
Sweden, Holland, Ireland, the UK –
and of course, the best in the world
from the USA and New Zealand.
Current President of SABS, Lyn
Baines, commented “Barbershop in
2016 is very different to what it was
when it started to grow away from
its African-American roots between
the 1st and 2nd World War, when only
men took part. Today, the barbershop
style of singing is enjoyed by male
and female quartets and choruses
throughout the world.”
Lyn added “In the 1950/60’s singers
like Andy Williams, Dick Van Dyke
and even the Osmonds made the style
popular. Today’s champions sing
traditional and very modern songs.”
Marcia’s Dance Centre and Stage
School will also be performing at
the event. Everyone who enjoys a
musical evening with some comedy
thrown in, are welcome at Casa de
Cultura, Calpe on March 31st.
