Voices Unleashed will release the primal beauty of the human voice in harmony with each other.  Following on the breathtaking success of last year’s debut - Voices Unleashed  will be creating another interactive vocal landscape where the audience find themselves immersed IN the choirs to experience the rawness of the human voice but within the sophistication and synchronicity of the choir.

Joining us for Voices Unleashed:

Songbirds are a 25-strong, womans choir founded on a shared love of singing. This collective of fabulous women come together every week to sing popular music across the decades. In the words of Stephen Sondheim, "If I cannot fly, let me sing". Songbirds are a fun and energetic choir that whisk you away, back to that carefree and joyous part of yourself. You can't help but be caught up in the energy of Songbirds and their obvious delight in song.

Wasabi are a group of Japanese ladies who used to focus on only bringing up their children, but now just love gathering together; singing chatting, re-visiting our japanese heritage, eating home baking with green tea, and occasionally drinking.  We have been singing together since 2015 in places ranging from a smelly pig shed to the performance room in Te Atamira. We invite the audience to discover our cultural difference, language, dress, nature and a tiny bit of Japanese culture.
