What we’re about
The Capitol Chordsmen Chorus is an acappella Men’s Chorus in Madison, Wisconsin, with origins tracing back to 1945. Capitol Chordsmen is a chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society, the premier a cappella musical organization in the world.
We primarily perform and compete in the barbershop close-harmony style of singing, but our repertoire also draws from jazz, broadway, and original compositions.
Our vision is to improve the musical experience of:
- Our members through continuous learning, variety of music, and encouraging the formation of quartets.
- Our guests through great chapter meeting visits, great information resources, and encouraging participation that matches their comfort level.
- Our audiences through the best possible performances, variety of genre and variety of ensemble.
