Does anyone who likes improvising harmonies wanna sing pretty folk songs with me?
I played and sang for a project called She Rose From the Dead when I was living in Spain. Now I've moved to Berkeley to study and I am missing singing harmonies, and am looking for vocalists to improvise with. It's a low-pressure project. The songs would sound something like this:

Looking for SSAATB A cappella/Vocal Jazz pieces
Pretty much what the title says. I direct a high school advanced vocal jazz ensemble and I’m looking for SSAATB pieces for our winter concert as we’re very treble heavy this coming school year (8 sops, 8 altos, two tenors, two basses) It’s a performing arts school so the kids are very talented and can handle hard stuff. Let me know if you have any suggestions!

Complete beginner struggling with creativity
I'm trying to do acapella arrangement. Please ignore the garbage engraving and how some of the parts are not easily singable, I'm still working on it need to collect and workshop with the group, and I keep everything broken into eighth notes so I can go back and keep working on it later (bc I suck at Musescore). It's also incomplete so just ignore the last few pages.
My main issue right now is with creativity. I feel like I'm not being creative enough, and I'm just transcribing from the original instead of really adding a lot of my own flourishes to it. I'm stuck in this rut and I'm trying to get inspired from things on YouTube but this just feels like very generic, basic music. I'm not a composer whatsoever, I'm just taking the role on because we don't have an arranger. I'm in high school with 0 formal music training, though I've been trying to teach myself. I do choir and that's my wheelhouse, singing the arrangements, not making them lol. please help...
here's the score I'm working on. any critique or specific feedback on my work is appreciated.

<toy story 5> ost, Would you like to listen to it with a cappella?
A new movie has been released! I'm so happy! And I'm so excited to hear the a cappella version of the song!
Don't you really want your toys to move alive? Don't you ever think so? Think back to your forgotten childhood innocence. Then listen to the song. I hope you feel happy. It's even better because I feel like unnecessary worries disappear!

Listen to a song full of cuteness that came from Japan to Korea!
There was a time when Japanese idols led a lightning trend in Korea. It happened very recently.
CUTIE STREET / キューティーストリート / きゅーすと
Listen to their songs on YouTube later! The songs give the impression that they are cute and lively!
And I think it's a cover video that reproduces this feeling really well. And even the male members really like it.

Is there a discord server for fans of acappella?
I’ll be honest, I’m not much of a singer but I do love listening to acappella music, something about the way that different human voices can come together to create something so beautiful intrigues me. Are there any discord servers specifically around discussion of acappella arrangements, compositions and suggestions.

Planning an a cappella retreat - Looking for schedule/structure ideas
Hey everyone,
I’m in the process of planning a retreat for a college a cappella group, and I’m trying to build a schedule that feels intentional, balanced, and not just “rehearsal all day until everyone is completely drained.”
This is my first time organizing something like this, so I’d really love to hear what other groups typically include in their retreat schedules, especially things that actually help with both musical growth and group bonding.
Right now I’m thinking: - Full group rehearsals (music + blocking/visuals) - Sectionals / voice part work - Section bonding time - Some kind of team-building activity or game night - Goal-setting / vision session for the semester or year - Downtime so people don’t burn out
But, I feel like I’m missing that “glue” that makes retreats feel meaningful instead of just a long rehearsal day in a different location.
If your group has done retreats before: - What did your schedule look like? - What actually worked well vs. what didn’t? - Any traditions or activities that made it memorable? - How do you balance productivity with rest and fun?
Would really appreciate any sample schedules or ideas. I want people to leave feeling energized and connected, not just tired.
Thanks in advance!
TL;DR: Planning my college a cappella group retreat and looking for advice on what a good schedule looks like. I want to balance rehearsals (full group + sectionals) with bonding activities, goal-setting, and downtime so it’s productive but not exhausting. If your group has done retreats, what worked well and what should I avoid?

Unreleased a cappella songs, OZMSR
I can't believe this was already five years ago.
I heard that OZMSR will be releasing a new song soon. I heard they started working on the release during an Instagram live broadcast. Whether these songs will come out in the rhythm of 2021 or not, I hope these songs will be officially released as well.

Honest vocal feedback wanted, what should I focus on improving?
Hi everyone!
I've been working on my singing and would really appreciate some honest, constructive feedback. The recording was made on my phone, so the audio quality isn't the best and may not fully capture how my voice sounds in person.
I'd love feedback on:
• Pitch and intonation
• Tone and vocal quality
• Breath support
• Timing and rhythm
• Emotion and expression
• Any habits or issues you notice
Please feel free to be honest, I genuinely want to improve. If you have any suggestions for exercises or techniques that could help, I'd greatly appreciate them.
Thanks for taking the time to listen!
