Voena (Voices of Eve 'N Angels), founded in 1994, has performed for Presidents Clinton and Bush in Washington D.C. and Pope John Paul II at the Vatican in Rome. As goodwill ambassadors, they have toured with their message of celebrating global diversity to China, Mexico, Italy, Greece, and Japan - from the White House, Mondavi Music Festival, Davies Hall to Carnegie Hall. With 100 + voices ranging in age from 6 to 18, VOENA achieves rich and inventive a cappella vocal arrangements by using multiple percussion instruments, dance, and theatrical elements, performing in a splash of color, and embracing our many cultural differences. Director Annabelle Marie was recently honored with the prestigious Jefferson Award for Outstanding Public Service Benefiting the Local Community from KPIX Channel 5's Barbara Rodgers. Annabelle Marie was for teaching children to strive for excellence and to find harmony in diversity through music. Most of the children join VOENA without any previous choir experience. There are no auditions; if the child has the desire to be in the choir, he or she is accepted. Anna Marie says the "Any child with the commitment and desire to sing can be in VOENA." There are four divisions within the choir: preparatory, intermediate, concert and concert ensemble. Awards |
