Voces8is top-notch a cappella group which can authentically perform centuries-old music as well as dazzling modern pop arrangements. Now on a North American tour, Voces8 stops in Kalamazoo Saturday at the invitation of the Kalamazoo Bach Festival Society.
Artistic director Barnaby Smith is one of two counter-tenors in Voces8 (in addition, they feature two sopranos, two tenors, a baritone, and a bass). In an interview with Cara Lieurance, he describes the group's grounding in the English choral tradition, and how innovation has given Voces8 its international reputation.
