Can anyone point me to open source software for singing voice synthesis,
and a note on how good it is?

Thanks,
Mike

This Cybilfofs Csound instrument by Jean Piché was designed to allow for legato and portamento of singing vowels. The idea is to create one long note, the length of a phrase, & then use f table lookups for pitch & duration. The Csound inst & score text is here:

You can hear an example of its use in my piece OMG on the album "The Shape of Water" just released on iTunes (plug, plug).
I believe Jean's related software Cecili 5 is still around on the net.

Cheers,
David

Forgot to add that Cybilfofs includes dormant tables for a variety of voices - male, female, high low, child's voice.

Cheers,
