I am a Renaissance motet obsessionist and also like music from various other periods esp. modern choral a cappella. I love sight-singing and sing through about 2 feet of CPDL music per month. I am allergic to madrigals, don't love the schmaltzier Romantic choral works.
I like sight-singing Renaissance motets, as well as singing pretty much any other music.

I organize occasional get-togethers for 4-8 singers to do advanced Ren motet sight-singing for fun. These are aimed at singers who can read a Ren motet correctly on the first try (alone on their part) without sounding like they're searching for the notes or getting lost; occasional fleeting errors are only human. We generally sing each piece only once. Singers are usually at the pseudo-professional or professional level; the sound varies based on who is attending and is different every time. We meet in Berkeley on a weekend afternoon or else in downtown SF on a weeknight. Each date is a separate one-time commitment.
