He's Got the Whole World in His Hands (TTBB)
NOW AVAILABLE FROM PARK MUSIC PUBLISHERS
TTBB (a cappella)
I benefited from a wonderful education in barbershop music at www.barbershop.org/history ("An Examination of the Barbershop Style by David Wright), sponsored by the Barbershop Harmony Society (SPEBSQSA). Videos of spectacular performances are available at that web-site, including a WOWIE-ZOWIE musical spectacle by 2009 International Champions, the Ambassadors of Harmony.
I hope this arrangement reflects some characteristics of the modern barbershop sound. For better male choruses and singers who can stand their ground. There are many arrangements of this song, but none like this one.
