Cappella choir at Ascension

Cappella is a group of eight young vocalists.


A vocal octet of young singers called Cappella is performing at Ascension Winery Sunday May 22 at 4pm as part of the Warkworth Music series.

Based in Auckland, the group performs across the country and has worked with some of the New Zealand’s most prominent artists.

The programme will feature folk music from around the world, including Erb’s eight part Shenandoah.

Cappella recently performed at the Lakeside music festival in Rotorua, alongside some of New Zealand’s greats, including Simon O’Neill, Tim Beveridge, Jackie Clarke, Elisha Fai Hulton, and Howie Morrison Jnr.

“It is a wonderful and very gratifying feeling to be recognised alongside these incredible musicians,” Cappella singer Sarah Harris says. “We take what we can from working with singers of that calibre and try to improve ourselves both personally and collectively. We are being gifted more and more chances to sing at that level which is a great testament to the hard work of the Cappella team.”

Tickets $30, students free.
