Sing Out Loud - Bella Voce Young Women's Choir

Through the generous donations for Bella Voce's audience, a small boy from Vietnam has arrived in Minnesota for life changing surgery. At Bella Voce's spring outreach concert, One World — One Voice, we appealed to our community to help a little Huynh van Hieu.

The six thousand dollars raised through these efforts have now brought Hieu to Minnesota where he will be receiving treatment at the Minneapolis Shriners Hospital in the twin cities. Hieu's arrival was news on the local Rochester television stations.

Bella Voce is honored to be selected to perform at the 2011 National Conference of the American Choral Directors Association (ACDA).

ACDA, a music-education organization whose central purpose is to promote excellence in choral music, holds a national conference every two years. Bella Voce will be performing at the national conference held March 9-12, 2011 in Chicago. 

Bella Voce applied through a highly competitive application process. Part of the application included submitting recordings of songs that southeast Minnesota audiences have heard the choir perform over the past three years. We are honored and humbled to be selected with other choral ensembles from around the nation and world.

Other ensembles that will be performing at the conference include Cantorei of St. Olaf College in Northfield, Norsemen of Luther College in Decorah, musica intima from Vancouver, BC, Taipei Philharmonic Chamber Choir from Taipei, Taiwan, and Youth Choir Kamer from Latvia.

Bella Voce presented a diverse repertoire of music from around the globe at our spring concert, One World — One Voice, in two performances on Sunday, May 2, 2010.

Each year, as part of our mission, we use our spring concert as a fund raiser for a charitable cause. Previously, we have raised funds for organizations making a difference in our world. This year we are focusing on a more personal form of charity — reaching out to a small boy in need in Vietnam.  In partnership with Resource Exchange International - Vietnam, Bella Voce is asking the community to help bring this boy from Vietnam to Minnesota for surgery to correct a birth defect.
