Big Woods Voices is a terrific vocal quartet based in Southeastern Vermont. They will be offering a concert at Mt Toby Friends Meetinghouse in Leverett, Massachusetts on Sunday afernoon, April 30th at 3-5 pm.

Big Woods Voices will perform a celebration of their new CD, Big Woods Voices: Poetry in Harmony, featuring Will Danforth's beautiful musical arrangements of mostly original poems.

About Big Woods Voices: As a quartet, Big Woods Voices explores the beauty and challenge of a cappella harmony, favoring poetry set to music and songs that delight them personally and musically, through arrangements grown from American roots genres, world folk styles, poets old and new, and Will Danforth's deep creative well. From heart-stopping to foot-stomping, prayerful to fun-filled, dissonant to dulcet, Big Woods Voices brings the spirit of southern Vermont to life through rich harmonies and soulful interpretations.

The Voices (from high to low) are Amanda Witman, founder of the Brattleboro Pub Sing; Becky Graber, director of the Brattleboro Women's Chorus; Will Danforth, an award-winning, multi-instrumental solo acoustic artist; and Alan Blood, long-time member of many area groups including the Blanche Moyse Chorale, I Cantori, Blue Moon, and House Blend. 

Tickets: You can purchase a ticket by making a "sliding scale" donation now on this webpage (see column at left)—or making a donation via cash, check, or credit card at the door. Suggested donation $10-30, but no one should stay away for lack of funds. "Be generous—be affordable."
