PREVIEW OUR 2008-2009 CONCERT SEASON!

VOICES was founded in 1987 to provide outstanding performances of new and classical music and to interest children in composing and singing. VOICES Chorale, an auditioned chorus with members from New Jersey and Pennsylvania, was founded in 1992 to provide outstanding performance opportunities for community singers. (See A Short History of VOICES.) The Chorale performs an unusually varied repertoire, including choral masterworks and premieres by American composers. Our Music Director is Dr. Lyn Ransom and Timothy Brown is our Principal Accompanist.

VOICES rehearsing at Music Together, Hopewell, NJ

VOICES performs six to eight formal concerts and several outreach concerts each year in Mercer County, New Jersey and Bucks County, Pennsylvania. The group also occasionally performs in New York City and tours internationally, with our most recent tour, to Bavaria and northern Italy, in the spring of 2007. Our current membership is over 60 singers, including a 28 member chamber ensemble called Sotto Voce. We usually rehearse Monday nights from 7:30-9:45 pm at locations which are a short drive from Princeton, Trenton or Bucks County, PA. This year, we are rehearsing at Music Together in Hopewell, New Jersey.

VOICES also has a variety of programs of interest for:
   children and their teachers,
   performers, and
   the community.

VOICES invites new and returning members to join us for our spring concerts!

Are you too busy to sing? Our members find our rehearsals and performances to be a special time for ourselves. Making music together, even in its most energetic moments, creates an "oasis of spirit" which we take with us for days; it re-energizes us and re-focuses us on enjoying and valuing the things that are most important in life.

"Come sing with VOICES!"

VOICES welcomes new members through auditions scheduled by appointment throughout the year. In addition to singing the world's great choral literature, VOICES offers singers an opportunity to learn about vocal technique, music history and performance style in music. The chorale, under the direction of Dr. Lyn Ransom, attracts serious amateur musicians from New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The music ranges from Renaissance to contemporary -- from spirituals and show music to the sacred and classic. If you love a musical challenge, this is where you belong! Interested singers should call call or email Sandy Duffy, Voices Chorale Audition Coordinator (609) 799-2211 or auditions@voiceschorale.org to schedule an audition.
