DMICS Presents: Lyyra

Lyyra is the new all-women vocal ensemble from The VOCES8 Foundation. Creating world-class musical experiences to inspire audiences, Lyyra seeks to redefine the genre of upper voice music in the choral landscape, highlighting the astonishing capabilities within the full spectrum of women’s singing. The sound of this bright, young group combines velvety richness alongside star-like brilliance. With a broad texture and exhilarating range of sound, the group’s talented members specialize in classical, jazz, pop, and folk music from diverse traditions and backgrounds. On this program they will perform a wide range of repertoire, from J. S. Bach to Samuel Barber, and from Hildegard von Bingen to Billie Eilish, plus the premiere of a new arrangement of "What Color is the Dawn?" by DMICS founder Jordan Kuspa.
