Dear Xavier,
I looked up "barbershop quartets" on the internet and found one with some sound
files at

http://207.156.137.19/cgi-bin/acappella/checkreal.rm?acappell/66595-01_30_Surestream.rm

I don't think anyone here answered your question because to an American the
question is kind of a joke.

I just wanted to mention that your comments about performing Mozart was a
revelation. Thanks.

By the way, I just picked up this gaget, a Sabine BT-316M backtrak riff recorder
from musiciansfriend and used it yesterday to help me analyze some Aretha. It
is really a help to listen to a passage at 1/2 speed.

She sings the 7/4!!! Ray Charles did too. I might say it's more of a gospel
thing than a blues thing. Blues is not really about 7-limit.
