a cappella - groove, depth and power!

About Me

VoxNorth is an a cappella ensemble in connection with The Academy of Music in Aalborg, and was founded by conductor Jim Daus Hjernøe in 2005.“These singers are some of the best (flexible in range, style, chops) group singers I've ever worked with!” (Roger Treece of New York, co-composer and producer on the coming Bobby McFerrin album, and a member of Bobby McFerrin’s Voicestra).“VoxNorth performed improvisational works with a lot of depth and power!” (Bill Hare, Bill Hare Productions, Silicon Valley, California – after the concert during Aarhus Vocal Festival 2006 – www.aavf.dk).Repertoire: VoxNorth has adapted the style of Bobby McFerrin’s improvised circlesongs, and work with a performance-style where the audience will enjoy both warm and crispy arrangements and improvised parts during the concert!Our goal is to be a part of the evolution of modern a cappella music.Unique Layouts
