VOCES8 is a British vocal ensemble originally founded in 2003[1] and regrouped in 2005[2] by brothers Paul and Barnaby Smith, both former choristers of Westminster Abbey.

The ensemble has a diverse repertoire, including early English and European Renaissance music, traditional folk song, classic jazz, pop, and their own arrangements.

[6][2] VOCES8 has commissioned new works from composers such as Ēriks Ešenvalds, Ola Gjeilo, Jonathan Dove, Jocelyn Hagen, Ken Burton, Roderick Williams, Alexander Levine, Roxanna Panufnik, Mårten Jansson, Ben Parry, and Christopher Tin.

[12] Foundation artists reach up to 40,000 people a year in regular workshops and masterclasses with Music Hubs, schools and community groups.

In 2015 the ensemble launched the VOCES8 Scholars Programme which provides training in performing, recording and workshop leading for 20 young singers with an interest in choral singing in the UK and USA.
