Returning to CMH, this 2023 GRAMMY-nominated British vocal ensemble celebrates their 20th Anniversary with a program of diverse musical pieces titled “20 Songs from 20 Years.” VOCES8 strives to involve audiences in the music so fully that the group prefers to perform with a program listing or notes. This promises to be an unforgettably immersive concert experience.

“VOCES8’s gorgeous sound, impeccable ensemble and intense responsiveness to text, harmony and melodic shape is all of the highest quality. Hearing them sing is a joy.”
