Huron Expositor, 2016-10-05, Page 88 Huron Expositor • Wednesday, October 5, 2016 Seaforth Harmony Kings live up to hype Shaun Gregory Huron Expositor Vehicles cluttered North Street, finding a parking spot had become an almost impossible task for those who were tardy at arriving at the Seaforth Harmony Kings concert- "The Best Worst Musical Ever." A few brief moments throughout the night, the sound of rain showered the town. From the inside of Sea - forth Public School, besides a microphone this concert required no electronic ampli- fication, just 34-35 men equipped with voice boxes that could be heard through the school walls. In the gymnasium, hun- dreds upon hundreds of people enjoyed the show with the first half of the con- cert featuring an amalgama- tion of compositions from a wide range of musicals including the Wizard of Oz, the Phantom of the Opera, Music Man as well as numer- ous others. The second half saw the Seaforth Harmony Kings' barbershop quartet, the HEET, with a special guest appearance by the quartet Chordiology. Hailing from the U.S. state of Michigan, the group is celebrating their 27th year together. They've competed in the Pioneer District Barbershop Quartet competition since the late 90s and they were rewarded with a win in 2007. During the intermission, the musical director of the Seaforth Harmony Kings, Dave Campbell, said that the guest group are a key com- ponent as to why they were able to be the 2016 Ontario District Chorus champions. He said one of the Chordi- ology members has spent a lot of time coaching their squad in the last couple of years. October 11 will be the start of the Seaforth Harmony Kings' Christmas Season. This will be the time when the group will be looking to increase their membership to at least 40 members, Campbell revealed to the Expositor October 1. "We are always looking for new members," stated Campbell in the SHK stand- ard black suit with a bright yellow tie. "We are inviting men to come and see what we are about:' Directing the concert for the Seaforth Harmony Kings, Dave Campbell electrifies his band mates.
