Vox Lucens #1

Vox Lucens is a 12-member vocal ensemble that came together in 1998 to explore the Renaissance sacred and secular a capella repertoire. Under the direction of Jay Lane, we work cooperatively to develop programs combining popular favorites with lesser known works, often in our own editions. We approach the repertoire and rehearsals with a sense of fun, and in performance we enjoy bringing out the dramatic aspects in the music, particularly in the secular repertoire. The choice of the name Vox Lucens, Latin for "a shining voice," echos not only the ensemble sound we bring our audiences but also our hope to shed light on the wide variety of styles and textures of the Rennaisance repertoire.
