WILLIAMSVILLE \u2014 The Manitou Project will offer a musical experience with Big Woods Voices on Sunday, Sept. 21, at 3 p.m. in the woods on Manitou\u2019s hallowed forest land. The experience is by free will offering with a suggested donation of $10-$25.<\/p>\n
BWV celebrates a cappella vocal harmony through arrangements grown from American roots genres, world folk styles, poets old and new, and Will Danforth\u2019s deep creative well. From heart-stopping to foot-stomping, prayerful to fun-filled, dissonant to dulcet, Big Woods Voices interweaves harmony and dissonance in riveting and melodic soundscapes.<\/p>\n
From our audience: \u201cThe music last night was extraordinary…the exquisite care each of the four of you put in, your combined harmonic sound, your humility, your bright spirits sending out the hope we are thirsty for. Each song was a jewel, a treasure.\u201d \u201cSinging sublime; songs sophisticated and meaningful; altogether a \u2018pinch me, I\u2019m in southern Vermont\u2019 experience!\u201d<\/p>\n
The Voices (from high to low) are Amanda Witman, founder of the Brattleboro Pub Sing; Becky Graber, director of the Brattleboro Women\u2019s Chorus; Will Danforth, an award-winning, multi-instrumental solo acoustic artist and a member of the Brattleboro Camerata; and Alan Blood, long-time member of area groups such as the Blanche Moyse Chorale, I Cantori, Blue Moon, and House Blend.<\/p>\n
Manitou is located at 300 Sunset Lake Road (it may appear on Mapquest as Newfane).<\/p>\n
