2020 sees the 65th anniversary of the Renaissance Singers (Renaissance Group) and while our in-person events are postponed to 2021 in light of global events, we have prepared a virtual celebration in anticipation of these festivities: a series of short films will be released one per day between 23-27 September, featuring contributions about the choir’s history and activities from members and alumni, as well as archive material and recordings.
