Mission

Founded in 2008, The Hell's Kitchen, NY Chapter of the Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barber Shop Quartet Singing in America, Inc. (SPEBSQSA) is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to promote the rich American tradition of barbershop harmony. As a chapter of SPEBSQSA, a.k.a. the Barbershop Harmony Society (BHS), we are part of a 20,000 member international organization that promotes barbershop as an art form, enriches lives through singing, and provides service to our communities. The chorus performs, competes, and does business as Voices of Gotham (VoG). VoG is ranked by the BHS as one of the top twenty barbershop choruses worldwide. The chapter also supports the SATB chorus Gotham Chorus. With over 120 members and growing, the HK chapter is a dues-paying organization that includes high school and college students, professional actors and musicians, and people of all ages, socio-economic, and cultural backgrounds who enjoy raising their voices in song.
