How to learn the tenor part

  1. 01 · Your part

    Hear your part on its own until the tune of it is in your ear.

  2. 02 · With the others

    Hear it with the others, so you know where it sits in the chord.

  3. 03 · Sing it

    Sing it with the others under you and watch each note light up as you land it. The mic listens only while it plays, and nothing is recorded.

About Sweet Adeline

Words: Richard H. Gerard (1903)

Tune: Harry Armstrong (1903)

Sweet Adeline was published in 1903 as You're the Flower of My Heart, Sweet Adeline, with words by Richard H. Gerard and music by Harry Armstrong. Our melody and words of the refrain come from that 1903 sheet music, printed by M. Witmark and Sons. Boston's mayor John F. Fitzgerald, Honey Fitz, sang it at so many rallies that it became his theme song. This is a barbershop favourite for 2 to 4 singers, all on the words: the alto and tenor slide through close chords beneath the tune, and the bass walks beneath.
