The British vocal ensemble VOCES8 is regarded as one of the best in the world. Nominated for a Grammy in 2023, it is known above all for its extensive repertoire, which it performs both a cappella and in collaboration with leading soloists, orchestras and conductors, and its commitment to education: Inspiring people through music and conveying the joy of singing is a matter close to the hearts of the eight singers. Their foundation is committed to »music education for all« and reaches around 40,000 people every year. Now the acclaimed ensemble is celebrating its 20th anniversary and presenting a personal best-of program that includes vocal treasures from the Renaissance to the present day. Happy Birthday, VOCES8!
