This site's purpose is to keep us informed about current singing schedules and special events, tell visitors about us, and attract new participants.

Once again, there is a single group singing in Ottawa, which meets on Wednesday evening, with the demise of the Sunday group. We welcomes visitors and new singers. Shape note music is not a performance art -- it's all about community singing and participation.

Read on for more information about singing schedules and special events!
