We meet for specific performance projects and workshops. We are open to all singers with no auditions and previous experience of contemporary music is not needed. We work mainly, though not exclusively, from music, some of which is unconventionally notated. Most of our work is a capella and the focus is on ensemble singing. One objective is to expand the contemporary amateur vocal repertoire, which is less developed than the instrumental repertoire. We work with composers and students, commissioning works and showcasing material for use by others.  less

So tret ich hie auf einen Stein: Gott grüss mirs zart Jungfräuelein! Und grüss euch Gott allsamt geleich, sie seien arm oder reich, Gott grüss euch all in einer G’mein, darzu auch die klein! So ich ein grüss, die ander nit, so wär ich kein rechter Singer nit! Right pleased am I to join this dance, I hope a beautiful young maiden will give me a garland Then I will be her own So I step up here upon a stone Tender maiden may God greet you and may God greet all here the same, be they poor or rich God greet Everyone together here, even the little ones! Because if I greet one and not the other, I would not be a true singer!  less
