Overview

Described by The Arts Desk as ‘the Rolls-Royce of British a cappella ensembles’, Voces8 combines with an innovative chamber orchestra and highly individual soloists for a diverse programme reflecting different spiritual traditions. Austrian musician Manu Delago contributes two works featuring the unusual percussion instrument that he plays to such extraordinary effect.
