About Voces Novae

Latin for new voices, Voces Novae is a chamber choir based in Bloomington, Indiana, whose mission is to use music, and the arts generally, to explore ideas that enrich and inform our daily experience.

Voces Novae has consistently placed the arts into unexpected or stimulating contexts and places, creating a fresh look at old masterpieces and presenting new works in the service of broad and interesting ideas.

Susan Swaney is our Artistic Director. Kim Carballo is our pianist. A board of directors made up of community members and Voces Novae singers provides leadership and support.
