Reply to comment by Loonerist_Spies in Singing Groups by appleoftruth

I‘ve wanted to try shape note singing. Is it true that one doesn’t need any musical aptitude or ability to read music?

Yes! It was designed to teach people to understand the pitches of notes in relation to one another and to read music. I also think the Baltimore group is great for beginners - we'll re-sing a particular part if that section needs a bit more practice
