| Bristol A Cappella is a high-quality mixed chorus that sings [[/about/vision#contemporary]] songs from a range of genres in the [[/about/vision#barbershop style]]. We don't have beatboxing or soloists, but we aim to create a wall of sound by singing in four to eight-part harmony. We’re always looking to improve our performances and have a good time along the way. We love to entertain at gigs and competitions and always welcome new auditionees. | Bristol A Cappella is a high-quality mixed chorus that sings [[/about/vision#contemporary]] songs from a range of genres in the [[/about/vision#barbershop style]].
