Statement and Access -

The Cheshiremen Chorus is a performing group of the Keene Chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society (BHS), which is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Our mission is to promote the enjoyment of lifelong singing to young and old alike especially in the unique, American, a cappella, barbershop style.

To accomplish that mission, we sing as a chorus and as quartets, offering performances or programs in schools, assisted living facilities and skilled nursing facilities within Cheshire County and the Monadnock region throughout the year. We sponsor and support local high school music programs, and support interested students to attend the BHS Northeastern District’s Harmony Explosion Camp Northeast (HXNE) program in the summer. We enjoy working with high school and regional choral groups to educate them in the a cappella style known as Barbershop.

We regularly sing for other local charitable organizations to support them in their community work and events.  We have made selected donations to local musical organizations to support their special music projects.

Our enduring role is to share our joy of harmony through song; our fulfilment is found among the smiles of our appreciative audiences.

The ability to provide these services to the community is assisted by: you, our fans and friends when you purchase admission to our events; the men and women of our community who step up and place paid advertising for their businesses or services in our programs or yearbooks; your direct tax-deductible charitable donations to our chapter; and, our own regular annual member dues and additional member support.

We thank you for your support.
