Returning to Australia, and to UKARIA, for the first time since 2019, VOCES8
will be Ensemble-in-Residence for our 2024 A Cappella Academy. Aurora
Vocal Ensemble (directed by Christie Anderson) will appear in the second half of this concert, which will culminate in a special collaborative performance with VOCES8. Directed
by Timothy Wayne-Wright (a former member of The King's Singers), the A
Cappella Academy launched globally at UKARIA in 2022.
‘This group is extraordinary. When I first heard Aurora at UKARIA, I was staggered at their seamless blend and delicate colours they were able to create during the course of a single piece. Over the last two academies, I’ve seen huge growth not just in the individual singers, but in the group as a whole under Christie Anderson’s leadership. I have worked hard with Aurora on exaggerating their spectrum of sound – not only showing a gentle, breathy vocal colour, but also committing to a brassy, full-blooded fanfare! Aurora is a rare beast – a group that everyone should hear.’
– Tim Wayne-Wright
