Here are a few pictures from the singing organized by the Boston Camerta in the Fall of 2007. The gathering was held in Knoxville and titled "Singing School". Thelessons came from many shape note traditions including Sacred Harp, Christian Harmony, and New Harp of Columbia. Singers from each of these traditions told a bit about the book they used and led the group in a several lessons. In addition the Boston Camerata sang as a small group while teaching their "New England style" with composers such as Billings and Ingalls.

This most enjoyable day was sponsored by MARCO, the University of Tennessee medieval studies program.
