Welcome to our Music

Gareth Cole

Gareth has been a member of the Barbershop Harmony Society for 35 Years. Starting in the Lake Geneva Country Gentlemen's Chorus then becoming a member of  Ancient Harmonious Society of Woodshedders. His love for music and singing lead him to join three different quartets: Geneva and Interstate 4 and Regency.  He has years of experience, being the Director of Lake Geneva's chorus since 2006. 

The Lake Geneva Country Gentlemen Chorus has been very active in the Walworth County Area. We sing at various events such as the opening night of the Walworth County Fair, Lake Geneva Museum's annual Christmas Parade of Trees, Veteran's Day program in Lake Geneva and our own show hosted in the fall every year.   

Being a part of the Barbershop Harmony Society we are involved in the preservation of barbershop history and music.  This also encompasses the compassion of giving. Throughout the years Lake Geneva Country Gentlemen has given monetary donation to several local charities.  In 2018 BHS allowed for combined choruses and Country Gentlemen graciously offered membership to women, some of whom were sisters in song through Sweet Adelines Spirit of the Lakes Chorus. 

Come see what we are about! Our practice includes singing as a group at the Horticultural Hall in Lake Geneva,  WI.  A typical practice will start promptly at 7:00 pm with a few stretching exercises and a few vocal warm-ups.  From there we will sing a variety of our repertoire songs along with learning new. At 8:00 we take a short break for a business meeting and listen to pick up quartets, then continue the night with more singing.  We end promptly at 9:00 pm with singing "Keep the Whole World Singing".

Join us on Monday nights from 7:00-9:00 PM.
