Constellation
Sometime in May of 1982, four young men, who where members of London's Men Of Accord barbershop chorus, came together and formed a quartet and they called it Constellation (meaning an Array of Stars). This was years before the inception of the Strathroy Vocal Federation, but because three of the men in this quartet played a big part in starting the Federation, this quartet deserves mention on this page.
The following picture was taken of Constellation at the Spring Convention on April 22nd,1983, that was held at Hamilton Place in Hamilton, Ontario. From left to right is Howard Greenly (Tenor), Brian McDougall (Lead), Jim McDougall (BassI and John Gough (Baritone). They sang at many venues from Toronto to Sarnia over a period of about three years, and it was Brian, Jim and John who where implemental in forming the Strathroy Vocal Federation.

During their times together, the Constellation managed to put together a cassette tape for the general public to enjoy and it is with great pleasure that this website offers you the opportunity to listen to that tape.
