This is a question that has puzzled me for quite a while and, not being to up on music theory, I can't identify the reason or reasons. In general I really like unacompanied singing, from The Witches of Elswick to The Anonymous Four to Ladysmith Black Mambazo. Yet I can't stand Barber Shop. Is there a technical reason for this (such as the intervals between the different parts, rythmn) that makes Barber Shop different to other styles I like or is it just a quirke in my musical make up?

Thanks,
