Abstract:
The Etowah Christian Harmony Singers of Haywood County received a 2010 Community Traditions Award for carrying on the western Carolina tradition of shape note singing. The Etowah community is now in its 103rd year of celebrating this style of human voice singing. The tradition of reading music in shaped notes can be traced back to the English Renaissance.
