VOCES8
BRITISH VOCAL ENSEMBLE VOCES8 is proud to inspire people through music and share the joy of singing. Touring globally, the group performs an extensive repertory both in its a cappella concerts and in collaborations with leading orchestras, conductors and soloists.
VOCES8 has performed at many notable venues, from Wigmore Hall to NCPA Beijing and Palacio de Bellas Artes Mexico City. Touring highlights of 2018-19 include debut visits to Australia (Sydney Opera House) and Lithuania, as well as concerts throughout the UK, Europe, Japan, and the US. VOCES8 will perform with the Academy of Ancient Music, Manchester Camerata, the Orchestre Philharmonique de Monte-Carlo, and with baroque violinist Rachel Podger in the critically acclaimed Guardian Angel project.
The ensemble is a Decca Classics/Universal artist and has released recordings that have all reached the top of the classical charts. A new album is planned for 2019. VOCES8 has premiered many commissions, and in 2019 will premiere a new work by Jonathan Dove marking the culmination of his period as Composer-in-Residence.
VOCES8 is passionate about music education and is the flagship ensemble of music foundation Voces Cantabiles Music (VCM). It is also the Associate Ensemble for Cambridge University and delivers a Masters program in choral studies. VOCES8 publishes music with Edition Peters, and this season will release music scores through the Tido Music app.
Rolling hills and green valleys, rugged mountainsides and hidden villages, a place where the wild and the cultivated sit side by side - the unique character of the land we call home has long been an inspiration for artists and musicians alike. Folk repertoire has been passed down through the years, a continuous cultural identity that is renewed by successive generations according to its own tastes and fashions.
Enchanted Isle casts a contemporary eye on this landscape. New arrangements of Scottish and Irish melodies sit alongside compositions set to texts by some of the greatest English poets, conveying a sense of both longing and of profound belonging.
...telling old stories, singing songs, that make me think about where I came from... Dougie MacLean
