Weihnachtskonzert mit voiceaffair
VOICE AFFAIR – the singing and experimental pop and jazz choir from Ravensburg with around 26 singers and a combo has firmly established itself in the regional choir landscape over its more than twenty years of existence. The choir has been led since the summer of 2018 by Kristina Stary, a trained pianist and Master of Rhythmic Vocal Leadership from the Royal Academy in Aalborg.
VOICE AFFAIR presents a consciously broad spectrum of styles with well-known jazz standards, swinging and groovy arrangements of pop songs, atmospheric choir ballads, and original arrangements by Kristina Stary. A combo with piano, drums, saxophone, and bass accompanies the choir empathetically in many pieces and forms a sounding foundation or steps forward as a combo ensemble with tension-filled musical dialogues.

Press Comments...
“The knee bounces, the shoulder twitches, the toes move to the beat, the fingers want to snap,... That’s what happens when the good twenty singers from Voice Affair really kick off.” (Schwäbische Zeitung)
“That the chemistry at Voice Affair works is obvious. How it happens that the choir grows together emotionally and sonically into a unit – perhaps it has something to do with the swing? – remains ultimately a secret.” (Schwäbische Zeitung)
Information from the organizer:
The concert takes place in the Werftsaal in the building, not, as usual in summer, on the outdoor Werftbühne.
