The Centre des Arts Pluriels Ettelbruck (CAPE) has launched a final call for singers to sign up for the "Single Singers Go A CAPE'LLA" project as part of the A CAPE'lla Festival, which will take place from 30 January to 2 February 2020 in Ettelbrück and Diekirch.
The CAPE Ettelbruck, in cooperation with INECC Luxembourg, has invited passionate singers to participate in the Single Singers Go A CAPE'LLA project. The Single Singers were originally founded by Annemarie Homan and Emily May 't Hoen for the London A Cappella Festival in January 2012. Its aim was to give singers who came to the festival alone the opportunity to perform with a group. The name is based on the well-known Swingle Singers, who also hosted the festival. The concept was so well received that the Single Singers brand even made its way to the USA and Asia.
A joint appearance at the festival is planned for 1 February 2020. For further information and to register, email: info@thesinglesingers.co.
