Great Northern Union
The Great Northern Union is a men's chorus based in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. They perform 4-part harmony, particularly in the barbershop style. Officially, they are the Hilltop, Minnesota chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society, and are very active in competition. Following the 2011 Barbershop Harmony Society International Chorus Competition the GNU took home the silver medal, taking second to the Masters of Harmony by a margin of only .2%.

Like to a double cherry, seeming parted,

Two lovely berries moulded on one stem.”
