Join members of the singers' collective, Soho Voce, for an evening of spontaneously, joyously invented song. Using a variety of music forms in the tradition of Bobby McFerrin and Rhiannon and drawing on diverse music traditions (as well as the occasional composition), Soho Voce spins voices, ideas, and spirits into delicious improvisations. Expect the unexpected. . . you might even find yourself singing!
