Concert: Avante Vocal Jazz Ensemble

Independent Presbyterian Church’s 48^th annual Religious Arts Festival continues with a concert in Highland Hall by Avante Vocal Jazz Ensemble from Raleigh, North Carolina. With their bold fusion of jazz and contemporary a cappella singing, they will perform repertoire that pays tribute to the great masters of vocal jazz while adding a new twist to familiar standards. Their repertoire ranges from contemporary choral works to cutting edge jazz with a modern flair. Routinely praised for its high standard of musicianship and unique arrangements, Avante tours the United States, appearing in concert, at corporate venues, and on college campuses.
