Little song for Barber Choir (Barbershop music)
Words and Music by
JUAN CARLOS CORTÉS AGUIRRE.
It consists of a brief introduction, and two parts (Binary Form) in the key of C (C Major), ending with a Cadential Coda.
As is logical its main melody is sung by the "Lead", with the second high voice of the "Tenor".
The "Walking Bass" is the character of this little song.
In some cases it is melismatic and contrapuntal, even for the Baritone.
The second part has a choreographic option indicated for body motor skills according to the text, intended for the Barber Choir that wants to represent it histrionically.
Originally this is a school and children's song, composed in 1991, to develop the attention and gross motor skills of schoolchildren.
But it serves as a choral song for the personal and collective delight of the Barbería Choir singers.
It is intended for a very professional choir, as it is closer to the classical and academic choral style.
Text:
We are happy.

Canción para Barber Choir (Música de Barbería)
Letra y Música por:
JUAN CARLOS CORTÉS AGUIRRE.
Consiste en una breve introducción, y dos partes (Forma Binaria) en la clave de C (Do Mayor), terminando con una Coda Cadencial.
Como es lógico, su melodía principal la canta el "Lead", con la segunda voz alta del "Tenor".
El "Walking Bass" es característico de esta pequeña canción.
En algunos casos es melismático y contrapuntístico, incluso para el barítono.
La segunda parte tiene una opción coreográfica indicada para la motricidad corporal según el texto, destinada al Coro de Barbería que quiera representarlo histriónicamente.
Originalmente se trata de una canción escolar e infantil, compuesta en 1991, para desarrollar la atención y la motricidad gruesa o corporal de los escolares.
Pero sirve como canto coral para el deleite personal y colectivo de los cantantes del Coro Barbería.
Está destinado a un coro muy profesional, ya que se acerca más al estilo coral clásico y académico.
