<\/a><\/p>\nAt the end of 2009, five singers came together and started Voco Novo A Cappella Group, with the goal to create new sound and collaborate with interdisciplinary Taiwanese artists. \u201cVoco Novo\u201d literally means \u201cNew Voices;” we hope to touch our audience\u2019s hearts with the music we create.<\/p>\n
Voco Novo performs regularly at Taiwan\u2019s first and only A Cappella caf\u00e9, A House, frequently garnering awards from many A Cappella festivals and competitions. Outside of Taiwan, the group also tours abroad in places like Korea, Hong Kong, China, Austria, Germany, and Sweden. Combining artistic disciplines helps Voco Novo create unique and exciting music. In December 2011, the theater-a-cappella show “Earth Songs” was produced, premiering in Taipei, Taiwan. This signaled the start of a new vision for a cappella music in Asia. In 2013, the singers joined a Taiwanese original musical production as singers and actors, which brought the group to even greater heights.<\/p>\n
