Although the release and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines reveal a glimmer of hope for the end of the pandemic, Belle Voci cancels the remainder of its 2020-2021 season with continued concern for the health and safely of our members and audiences. This includes all in-person rehearsals and performances that were previously scheduled through May of 2021.
The Belle Voci family continues to connect virtually on a weekly schedule that runs through mid-May. This schedule alternates between speaker and social sessions which keep us in touch and prepared to return to in-person rehearsing and performing as soon as it is deemed safe.
Our offshoot ensembles also remain active. Solo Voci, our small a cappella group, meets and rehearses virtually once a month. The directors of Giovani Voci, our young singers group, provide weekly, 20-minute, one-on-one virtual voice lessons and monthly Zoom gatherings for their collective ensemble.
With eyes and ears on COVID-19 information as it is updated and statistics for the increasingly widespread distribution of the vaccine, decisions will be made regarding our 2021-2022 10th Anniversary Season as it gets closer. A final decision is expected by July 15, 2021.
It is with great hope and positivity that Belle Voci begins planning for a return to live, in-person activities in September of 2021.
From the Belle Voci family to yours, please stay safe until we are able to meet again.
