The Grammy-nominated 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 musicians, orchestras, conductors and soloists. Versatility and a celebration of diverse musical expression are central to the ensemble’s performance and education ethos which is shared both online and in person.

Their programme of sacred and secular music ranges from the Renaissance – Lassus, Gibbons – via Mendelssohn, Gershwin and Nat ‘King’ Cole, to the present day, with Ola Gjeilo, Caroline Shaw, and singer-songwriters including Simon and Garfunkel, Enya and Kate Rusby.
