The Renaissance Chorus Open Sing, held Friday October 29, 2009 in the undercroft at Advent Lutheran Church in New York City, was a casual event attended by former Renaissance Chorus members and friends. Conductors who had had a part in the Renaissance Chorus took turns leading mostly old favorites of Renaissance music.

The tracks here record only the singing, not the intense discussion that led up to each piece nor the commentary afterward, all of which you may imagine as being moderately chaotic but friendly.
