Voces8’s LYYRA + Orlando Sings Harmonia in Concert. In their debut performance in the Southeastern US and Florida, NEW ensemble Lyyra looks set to reach a glittering place in choral music’s constellation – it was created by The VOCES8 Foundation to build support and visibility for upper voices and their potential. The group’s sound combines velvety richness alongside starlike brilliance. With a broad texture and exhilarating range of sound, the group’s members specialize in classical, jazz, pop, and folk music from diverse traditions and backgrounds.
Lyyra is the only professional six-voice women’s a cappella group in the US. Lyyra delivers inspirational, uplifting, dynamic performances and has the desire to make change in the world. They will be joined by the acclaimed Orlando Sings Harmonia, the premier choir for auditioned adult soprano-alto voices on the East Coast, for a rousing finale! Harmonia will also present selections from their recording project (to be released early 2025) and from their upcoming performance for the Florida Conference of the American Choral Directors Association.
We can’t wait for the lovely historic venue to RESOUND with the beauty of soprano and alto voices!
