Whenever we went out to sing in public, people would ask us "What's the name of this group?" We didn't have a name. So we tried to think of a name. Someone suggested "Suds", so we gave it a try. But when people asked the name and we said Suds, it just raised more questions, defeating the purpose of having a name. We decided we needed a more descriptive name. I favored "The Renaissance Street Chorus", a takeoff on our inspiration group, The Renaissance Chorus.

Since Sacred Harp singing is a participatory activity, and not a performance, the singers arrange their seating so as to focus the sound inward, toward the center of the group, instead of projecting it outward toward an audience. The greatest volume and optimum balance are heard in the very center of the hollow square, where every singer may take his or her turn as leader.

People learning to play non-recorder Renaissance wind instruments don't have anywhere to go play with people. There are lots of recorder and viol groups that just meet in people's living rooms and have fun, but nothing equivalent for loud winds. So we play Renaissance music without a conductor. We play big band stuff like Gabrielli, but also the vocal and dance music, like Dowland and Susato. Players who wish to can try out improvisation and ornamentation styles.

There are many local clubs, most of which have singers nights 2 or 3 evenings a month, and time for floor singers even on guest nights.

The singers are not auditioned and vary in age from 15 to 50. Age is of little importance, but a redeemed and perfect heart before God is a requirement--NO EXCEPTIONS. A prospective singer lets Menno know that he or she is interested in joining the chorus. Depending on the age of the individual, Menno may check with the parents to make sure that the maturity necessary for this kind of work has been demonstrated at home.

Black oil sunflower seed is the hands-down favorite of most seed eating birds. Keep your bird feeding simple by offering the sunflower in both a tubular and a hopper-style feeders, put the tiny black Nyjer seed into a tube feeder with small holes and hang up a suet block as well.
