Sherwood Renaissance Singers was formed as a quartet in 1996. That year we began performing at the Shrewsbury Renaissance Faire, then held in Philomath, Oregon. Since then we have grown to a group of 17 singers, mostly from Sherwood, Oregon and surrounding areas. We perform at Renaissance Faires and other venues throughout Oregon and Washington during the summer months.
We sing three, four, and five part renaissance madrigals, chansons, and rounds, in English, French, German, and Italian. Our repertoire contains love songs, songs of merriment,, poignancy and sorrow. Our latest CD, "PRETENCE and Whimsey", was recorded in 2007.
