ACDA NW '24 Performance - A Success in so Many Ways

We are still floating on air after our ACDA-NW performance experience January 24-26, 2024. An event that will be one of the most memorable for most of us. We have returned more inspired and more connected with each other than before. We are elated knowing our voices and the messages in our songs resonated on a very emotional level for so many people in our Spokane audience.

Singers have shared conversations they had with tearful audience members describing how Vox Pacifica’s music connected with them. A choir of young high school girls came over to where Voxxies sat after we performed, very emotional, sharing how much they loved the music, how they were deeply moved.

Vox Pacifica’s goal to bring our listeners together in the spirit of love, unity, and belonging, and to send them along with full hearts and new memories was resoundingly achieved.

Music exists in the act of singing the notes, but its ultimate home lies in the hearts and minds of those who hear it.
