Global Voices is a four-part (soprano, alto, tenor, bass) a-capella (without accompaniment) choir based in Christchurch. We are dedicated to exploring the music and culture of the world, with a particular focus on songs of freedom, struggle and transcendence. Our songs draw from folk, indigenous, spiritual and contemporary traditions. The repertoire includes music from Eastern Europe, Africa, the Pacific and Aotearoa New Zealand and more.

The choir is directed by Helen Charlton, a leading Christchurch singing teacher, choral conductor and nationally-recognised soprano in opera, chamber opera, music theatre and radio.

With a new look and all new repertoire, Global Voices four part harmonies will take you on a trip around the world. A fusion of music from around the globe sung in a groovy up beat a capella style.

Global Voices have recently released a CD ‘Global Voices – the Global Choir 10 years on’. For more information: www.globalvoices.org.nz.
