Sauder Concert Hall
VOCO Guest Recital
Moira Smiley & VOCO is a visionary blend of voices ? redefining harmony singing
with the power & physicality of folksong, the avant-garde fearlessness of Béla
Bartók and delicious, vaudevillian accompaniment of cello, banjo, ukelele,
accordion and body percussion. Moira Smiley?s award-winning original music
and spell-binding American and East European folksong light up the stage with
rompin? stompin? body percussion and warm wit. Named #1 a cappella group in
the U.S. in 2007, moira smiley & VOCO is the energy of street singing and the
elegance of a string quartet. Called ?fascinating and multi-lingual? by the LA
Times, ?Persuasive, near perfect musicians? by the Herald Times, ?gritty and
ethereal, banjo to Bartók? by the Village Voice.
