A Choir-ed Taste

For the first time in the Esplanade Concert Hall, Musicians’ Inc. 6 (MI6) and the Voices Festival Choir present their signature blend of camaraderie and adventurousness, with a mix of choral classics, contemporary works and local premieres. In celebration of SG60, this year’s edition shines a spotlight on homegrown artists, and showcases the talent of Singapore’s best youth choristers and choral conductors.

Featuring the island’s most accomplished vocal talent, the Voices Festival Choir is a seasonal collective of auditioned young singers aged 17–26, led by a group of dedicated choral conductors and educators, MI6, who are active performers in the scene. The Festival Choir welcomes a fresh group of youth choristers every year, and provides a unique opportunity for them to learn new aspects of choral singing and grow in their vocal craft. Since 2022, the Voices Festival Choir has gone through educational workshops, rehearsals, and performances, learning from and performing with world-renowned artists ranging from The King’s Singers to The Idea of North. This performance is a culmination of lessons on music-making, community and journeying together, as presented through an eclectic choral repertoire including the works of Americ Goh, Ben Parry, Heinrich Schütz, Jake Runestad, Josu Elberdin, Laura Hawley and Mia Makaroff.
