“Black Voices successfully blends the melodies of Europe and the rhythms of Africa that break down barriers. My first experience of Black Voices rekindled the spirit of my ancestors. Long live these positive females with their beautiful Black Voices” Jackie Guy, Choreographer/Artistic Director – Harder They Come

For over 25 years, Black Voices has captivated global audiences with their passionate performances. This sensational a cappella ensemble has developed a unique repertoire 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 world-wide recognition.

Traveling the world with their distinctive sound, harmonies and stunning stage presence, they have also appeared with music industry giants including Nina Simone, Miriam Makeba, Ray Charles, Hugh Masekela, and Take 6. Absolutely unmissable!
