Voices of Concinnity is Connecticut's versatile 12-voice professional chamber vocal ensemble of dedicated, seasoned choral artists from diverse backgrounds, moving audiences through innovative programming that melds the unique qualities of each voice into a vibrant, rich choral sound.  

 

Our mission is to connect with the community in a meaningful way through exquisitely crafted, innovative choral programming that fosters inclusion, promotes collaboration, illuminates variety, and ensures affordable access.

 

Through the performance of choral music dating from the Renaissance to the contemporary, Concinnity is dedicated to illuminating the breadth and variety of choral repertoire, including works by historically excluded and living composers, to broaden our connection within our community.  With a focus on inclusion, Voices of Concinnity was founded in 2018 by Sarah Kaufold to help create affordable access for audiences to experience professional-level choral music and to cultivate an ensemble with flexible rehearsal schedules to include singers with varying career and family commitments. Concinnity’s sound has been described as “silky smooth butter in musical form” and “voices like I imagine angels might sound.” The word "concinnity" means the harmonious arrangement or fitting together of the different parts of something. As an ensemble, Concinnity focuses on individual expression within a cohesive whole, harnessing each singer’s unique vocal qualities into a rich collective sound; thus embracing an honesty that enhances the listening experience and resonates with audiences.

​

Concinnity has engaged in a number of collaborations and performed across Connecticut, including at state and regional conferences for the American Choral Directors Association and at Carnegie Hall.
