Song Selection
Each chapter is free to choose their own music. For male barbershop chapters, the typical two song selection is:
- Heart of My Heart, I Love You (the chorus from the Story of the Rose), and
- Let Me Call You Sweetheart
There are standard barbershop arrangements for these two songs from the Barbershop Harmony Society collection of twelve polecat songs (that society members are encouraged to learn).
The female barbershop societies do not suggest particular songs for chapters to use in this fundraiser.

Famous quotes containing the words song and/or selection:
“but you are not deaf,
you pick out
your own song from the uproar
line by line,
and at last throw back
your head and sing it.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“It is the highest and most legitimate pride of an Englishman to have the letters M.P. written after his name. No selection from the alphabet, no doctorship, no fellowship, be it of ever so learned or royal a society, no knightship,—not though it be of the Garter,—confers so fair an honour.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
