== My old Kentucky Home (barbershop tag) == | |||
Accompanying a barbershop quartet with the Kite guitar is fairly easy, and highly recommended! However playing a tag note for note is often impossible, because tags often use a 3-5-7-8 chord voicing. This tag is an exception, except for the 2nd-to-last chord. | |||
Vocal rendition, individual vocal tracks, sheet music, and videos: https://www.barbershoptags.com/tag-82-My-Old-Kentucky-Home In this version, the baritone's first "way" has been changed from an ^b3 to a b5, to avoid an 8ve with the tenor, and to provide the chord with a 7th. In 41edo, this Cb is the same note as the baritone's "home" note, just spelled differently. | |||

The baritone's "Ken" note is a low note a 4th below the 1. | |||
The 1 of the bass is an 8ve lower than the 1 of the other voices. | |||
