The Balancing Act Quartet was absolutely great. They are the real thing for sure. Professional, beautiful harmony, and fun. We hired them for a birthday party and they really made the party special! Thank you Balancing Act!
Response from Balancing Act Quartet:
Thank you so much for this amazing review of our quartet. We had such a blast singing for all of you and loved the immediate feed back we were able to receive just by seeing your faces.
We appreciate that you allowed us to share in Jean’s special birthday. It was an honor.
Sincerely, balancing Act Quartet
BAct was just right for our family reunion! The right mix of fun, humor, and talent! Absolutely recommend them!!!
Our ladies really enjoyed the singing and all the songs. Balancing Act was a great way to honor our fifty year members .
Response from Balancing Act Quartet:
Balancing Act was grateful to be invited to your celebratory luncheon and to have the opportunity to honor the Order of the Eastern Star members in song; which is the best way possible that we can show, and share, our love of barbershop music.
The audience was so attentive and we always know when we are making a connection as we saw many of the members singing along with us. After our performance they were extremely complementary; engaging us in conversation and stories.
Thank you for having faith in us,
Balancing Act Quartet
So easy to work with very professional and responsive to our questions
Response from Balancing Act Quartet:
The venue was beautiful, and everyone seemed to be having a great time! We really enjoyed singing for you, and were so glad it worked out even though we had to run afterwards for another gig! Thanks for your hospitality and we hope to work with you again!
Four Lovely Ladies dressed in their finest flapper attire entertain over 500 at Fosterfields Model-T Event in Morristown on Saturday Aug.25. Strolling through the living history farm and stopping at varies locations to harmonize wonderful and varied selections from the '20s. As a Barber Shop Quartet, "The Balancing Act" are a delightful surprise, "ladies" mixing among the antique cars, as their voices filled the air. Once indoors the Willows, our old manor home, the acoustics perfected their performance of patriotic and light-hearted tunes.
Response from Balancing Act Quartet:
We had a WONDERFUL time at this event! The people attending were so responsive, and it was obvious that everyone had a very good time displaying and seeing all of the vintage autos, as well as enjoying the historic farm setting. It was a performance we will never forget!
"Balancing Act" ladies quartet were fantastic. Great harmony and the people at our Community fair loved them. We will have them back to our fair next year by popular demand !!1
I hired The Balancing Act Quartet for my husband's surprise 60th birthday party. Everything went off without a hitch as far as hiring the quartet. I have been following barbershop music for decades and also am knowledgeable in music. I had the opportunity to listen to them on YouTube first. Having hired barbershop quartet's in the past I know that perfection isn't necessarily part of the deal. Happy to tell you they couldn't have been better. Their harmony and presentation were both excellent. They even learned a new song I had requested just for my husband. Their singing brought tears to our eyes. You can't go wrong hiring the balancing Act Quartet!
Response from Balancing Act Quartet:
Really appreciate it, and we loved getting to share your special event!
We had many customer compliments. The ladies harmony is excellent and their was great interaction with our customers. We have hired them back for September.

When people listen to us, they uniformly say that our music is fun and we look like we love what we do! We can tailor our performances to your event--from just a couple of songs for a special anniversary, birthday, or event to a whole show, or strolling "background" entertainment at a party or special venue! We have a number of patriotic and holiday songs in our repertoire as well, for those special times of year.
Our quartet formed in 2010, and we are all members of Liberty Oak Chorus in Freehold NJ, an Internationally ranked women's barbershop chorus. Singing Tenor is Rebecca Sundt, with Mary Walaszek on Lead, Jennifer Wiseman on Baritone, and Jan Rubino as our Bass. We sing all kinds of music, from the 1930s through the 1980s, all a-cappella and in 4-part harmony. We require no audio equipment or special set-up--we can sing in any location, from outdoor events to meeting rooms to restaurants or wherever music would add to that special event!
We can sing anywhere, with no need for lighting, sound equipment, or any special arrangements. However, if it is a large outdoor venue, we could probably use a microphone so that any MC work is not lost.
