THE
RITZ is:
Jim
Shisler - Tenor, Doug "Nic" Nichol - Lead, D.J. Hiner - Baritone,
Dr. Ben Ayling - Bass
The
Ritz is a unique quartet in that it is comprised of four vocal
music teachers, each from a different school district. Since winning
the Pioneer District Quartet Championship in l984, The Ritz has
gone on to the International Quartet Competition of theSociety
for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barber Shop Quartet Singing
in America (SPEBSQSA). In July of 1991 they became the International
Quartet Champions. Since the Barbershop Harmony Society doesn't
allow its International Cchampions to re-enter competition, The
Ritz has focused on making performance tours and studio recordings.
The quartet has regularly performed throughout the United States
and Canada and has been the featured entertainment aboard Caribbean
and Hawaiian cruise ships. In the fall of 1994 they were featured
on the nationally broadcasted PBS special, "Keep
America Singing" and again in March of 1996 on the "World's
Largest Concert." Their concert tours have taken them to Great
Britain, New Zealand and Australia. |
