Here's more about them :

Voice is an exciting, female vocal trio. In their nineteen years together, they have built a rich, varied repertoire of their own arrangements, new commissions, and rarely performed Early Music.

Victoria, Clemmie, and Emily first began singing together in Oxford as members of the Oxford Girls’ Choir, before going on to form the trio in 2006 as well as forging their own successful, diverse careers. 

The trio has performed across the UK, Europe, and the USA and has received funding from Arts Council England, Performing Rights Society Foundation, and the British Council.

The singers still perform with Sinfonye today and as a trio, Voice continues to perform Hildegard’s music and have commissioned new works inspired by her words and chant.

Voice collaborated with the Dufay Collective, directed by William Lyons, at Dartington International Festival (2013), on the English Medieval album I Have Set My Hert So Hy (released on Avie July 2015), and continues to work with the group including a tour of northern Spain in 2019. 

Voice has performed their Early Music programme, A Life of Love and Joy, at the Oxford Early Music Festival and the Petworth Festival described as “an absolute triumph of history and music”. In 2018, the trio participated in the Brighton Early Music Festival’s mentoring and development scheme, Early Music Live! Through this scheme, Voice are explored medieval repertoire, especially songs of the French and Italian Ars Nova (13th to 15th centuries).

Voice has toured the USA three times with Baylin Artist Management, most recently in collaboration with internationally renowned ‘cellist, Matt Haimovitz. 

Closer to home, Voice has enjoyed several performances in Brussels, at the West Cork Chamber Music Festival (2016 – 18), the inaugural Finding A Voice Festival, celebrating International Women’s Day (2018), and Three Choirs Festival (2017) where they premiered a suite of pieces for Voice and ‘cello, composed by Roderick Williams.
