Erato Ensemble is voice and instrument combined. Since 2006, we have been performing and commissioning new works and presenting concerts that range from beautiful to challenging, humorous to thought-provoking. Heavenly Voices brings together eclectic musical works that surprisingly fit together seamlessly. Subject matter ranges from Birdsong to Orpheus-inspired songs, from Biblical drama to wordless surrealism. All performed by some of Vancouver's most respected chamber musicians.
