After a long, cold covid winter the Oure Pleasure Singers are looking forward to a rebirth of live music!
|
For months now, we have been gathering on Zoom to keep in touch, to do vocal exercises, and to plan for the future.

This spring we had some virtual choir fun in a collaboration with Wheaton College. You can view the concert here. OP contributed to the opening number, "O Fortuna" (from Carl Orff's Carmina Burana), and "Wild Forces" by Jake Runestad (at 9:18 into the concert). |
After a year of isolation and loss - a year without singing - it’s important for us not only to return to music, but to express through it something thoughtful and sincere. This fall, OP will be presenting a program focusing on themes of gratitude - especially for health, community, and the gift of making music with friends. Featuring the music of Sarah Quartel, Eric Whitacre, and Heinrich Schutz. |

Now is best leisure to take oure pleasure ...
from Thomas Morley's Sing We and Chant It
Oure Pleasure Singers is a small group of vocalists dedicated to the joy of serious music-making. Comprised of singers from Providence, Attleboro, and surrounding communities, the ensemble sings an eclectic variety of music, ranging from plainchant to jazz, and embracing both the sacred and the secular.
Based in Attleboro MA, Oure Pleasure was founded in 1983 by friends who were seeking the special enjoyment of a small, closely-knit vocal ensemble. In its earlier days, Oure Pleasure concentrated on madrigals and music of the Renaissance and Medieval periods, and its name is borrowed from the words of the madrigal Sing We and Chant It, once its signature piece.
