Viva Vocal Ensemble is a 5-piece ensemble founded in contemporary vocal practice and the rich spectra of the voice. Building a new repertoire through collaborations with composers, this ensemble has a focus on new works and all things experimental.

Integral to the concept are two main things: one being an exploration of the capabilities of the voice, interpreting gestural extensions, sounding guttural expression, navigating intricate microtonality, and deconstructing vocal conventions; the other is an exploration of room and spatiality in performance. Fusing these together is the aim to establish an irrevocable interconnection between voice, body, and movement, in space and time.

​All members are established in their musicality, having developed their own distinctive artistic perspectives and expression, enriching the group sound and performative possibilities.
