Free youth vocal showcase of talented singers aged 12 to 20 nominated by Salisbury schools and music organisations, part of Celebrate Voice.
Emerging Voices IV is at The Guildhall on Saturday 9 November, a youth showcase that's part of the wider Celebrate Voice festival. It runs for 80 minutes, starting at 2pm.
Emerging Voices is the youth strand of Celebrate Voice, an international festival of voice in Salisbury now in its 13th edition. Its founder, Lynsey Docherty, describes it less as a festival and more as a community movement. This particular showcase brings together the most talented vocalists nominated by Salisbury schools and music organisations, aged 12 to 20, to perform across a broad range of styles. It's a good place to see the city's young singers on one stage.
There's more to it than just the concert, too. The festival uses these showcases to identify young people for further opportunities: some go on to appear in the Christmas shows, others take roles in future opera choruses for the main productions. Celebrate Voice is a registered charity (No. 1204454) that draws in local people across the board, from those hosting singers and backstage students to stewards, costumiers and administrators. Wilsons Solicitors LLP is the principal sponsor.
