Savannah VOICE Festival is back and LIVE for 2021! The annual, two-week long celebration of vocal excellence includes more than 25 performances, classes, and events at various venues in and around Savannah. August 8th through the 22nd, 2021.
Savannah VOICE Festival brings a stunning repertoire of opera, musical theater, and popular song performances to Savannah every year. Beyond the performances, the festival also offers a variety of masterclasses and food and wine events to attend.
Highlights for 2021 include an abridged version of Puccini’s “La Bohéme” (Aug 21). “FEMME” (Aug 18) is an exciting new program that showcases women in music. “FEAST” (Aug 14) is a workshop on the new Savannah VOICE Festival commission by Composer in Residence, Michael Ching.
“SONG” (Aug 12) promises great song literature and includes the world premieres of new work from emerging composers. “ROCK” returns with its collection of radio hits while “COFFEE” promises coffee and pastries with the performances in the Davenport House Museum garden. Yum!
This year’s venues include the Asbury Memorial Church, Charles H. Morris Center, Davenport House Museum Garden, Demere Center for Living, the Jewish Educational Alliance, and Telfair Academy.
