Acapella Festival with The Black Voices, Frankie Armstrong and friends, & Michael Ormiston and Candida Valentino

Making a triumphant return to the festival are the Black Voices, with deeply soulful gospel music lined with hints of jazz, classical and reggae.

Drawing inspiration from that rich tradition, Black Voices has developed a unique repertoire and arrangement of spirituals, traditional African, Caribbean and English folk songs, jazz, gospel, pop and reggae as well as a fusion of contemporary and classical styles that has earned them worldwide recognition as a performance and teaching company.

Black Voices is honoured to have been invited to perform before members of the British Royal Family both in the UK and overseas. In 1998, the ensemble performed at an open air concert for Pope John Paul 11 in Loreto, Italy and in 1996 they appeared before former President Nelson Mandela at the Two Nations Concert, Royal Albert Hall.

Also on the line-up is one of the forerunners of the Natural Voice movement, Frankie Armstrong and friends, with an eclectic mix.

Opening act Michael Ormiston and Candida Valentino start the evening with the mind-blowing sounds of overtone and undertone singing. Michael has had his throat singing featured on acclaimed BBC series Planet earth, and on Hollywood films The Golden Compass and We Were Soldiers.
