“The Vocal Consort sang superbly…a rich, seamless blend”
The New York Times
Originally formed in 1984 to complement the work of the Australian Boys Choir, The Vocal Consort has gone on to establish a distinct musical life of its own as arguably the country’s finest all-male vocal ensemble.
Seeking to develop new formats and audience for vocal performance, and setting a standard rarely achieved by other Australian groups, it makes numerous concert, soirée and festival appearances each year and continues to earn superlatives from critics and audiences alike.
Most members of the Consort gained their early training through the Australian Boys Choir and now provide inspiring role models for the boys in a repertoire ranging from plainchant and sacred polyphony through to various contemporary styles.
The Vocal Consort has toured internationally eight times encompassing tours across Europe, Asia and North America. They regularly perform throughout regional Australia, and in 2008 were a featured ensemble of the Hobart Festival of Voices.
TVC has released three CDs to date, the most recent of which was launched in April 2012.
