Voices International is a multinational, divers SATB choir in Luxembourg. Founded in 1997 as non-profit organization (asbl), we perform concerts featuring songs from a wide variety of musical styles and in different languages. We donate the proceeds of our concerts to charities supporting children.

We sing a wide variety of music styles, including but not limited to pop, classical, soul, blues, jazz, rock, barbershop, spiritual and gospel. We mostly learn and perform SATB or SAB pieces, interspersed with some ladies’ and men’s songs and a few solos and small group pieces.
Diversity of languages
Although most of our repertoire is in English, our performances regularly include songs in various languages such as French, Latin, Hebrew, Italian, Czech, Chinese, Swedish, Spanish, German, Polish, Greek, Amharic, Zulu, Dutch, Hungarian, Slovakian, Japanese, Scottish, Irish, Swahili, Ladino and Luxembourgish.
We regularly make parts of our programme accessible through sign language.
