The harmony tapes idea sounds great. If someone could please oblige with an email/fax/phone number I would appreciate it greatly.Just to kick this off, I went looking last night for a reasonable example of a suitable harmony that I might be able to share. Found that I had on disc a MIDI version of Steeleye Span's "Gaudete" with lead vocal and three harmonies. It's a great sing, and real fun - if you're not put out that it is written in Latin. It could be sung by anything from 2 voices up to a whole choir. Haven't looked yet but I assume that the words are either in the DT or at Steeleye's Web site.
How to proceed?
I have no idea where I located it on the Web, but assuming I can find it in the near future, I can advise in this Forum and those with a sound card can have a listen. Those with programs such as Noteworthy Composer or similar can view and/or print the lead and three harmony parts. There a number of free/cheap programs which would allow users to listen to individual harmony parts.
I could send the MIDI file to Mr Greenhaus.......?
I can and will (if I can figure it out) transpose each of the 4 parts into ABC using Allan Foster's program, and submit to this forum.
Any feedback or thoughts please?
