British ensemble VOCES8 will join the 12th World Symposium on Choral Music programme with two headline performances on Sunday 12 and Tuesday 14 July 2020. WSCM2020 will be the ensemble’s Auckland debut.
VOCES8 is renowned for its a cappella concerts and collaborations with leading orchestras, conductors and soloists. With a catalogue of acclaimed recordings that have reached the top of the classical charts, VOCES8 maintains an ongoing performance programme while continuing to release new music.
WSCM2020 Artistic Director John Rosser says, “Securing VOCES8 is a real coup for us. We can’t wait to share this world-famous ensemble’s wonderful sound and charisma with our colleagues, our choirs and the general public.”
