A Cappella Choir Stuns With 'The Sound Of Silence'
The a cappella voices of VOCES8 performs a stunning rendition of ‘The Sound Of Silence.’
Simon & Garfunkel originally released this song in 1964. Since that time, many artists have lent their voices to the tune. One of the most well known covers comes from the rock band, Disturbed, in 2015.
A Cappella group Pentatonix recently released their own version their own version and it skyrocketed in popularity. Today, we’re hearing an entirely new rendition and it’s absolutely amazing.
“Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence”
VOCES8 is an incredibly talented a cappella choir. On their website, the group describes their mission. “The British vocal ensemble VOCES8 is proud to inspire people through music and share the joy of singing.”
They’ve performed all around the globe with some of the biggest names in the industry. Today, this group is taking on ‘The Sound Of Silence’ and it’s one performance you don’t want to miss. And to make this arrangement even better, the entire track is performed a cappella. W
hen you perform a cappella, every sound that you hear comes from a human voice. There are no instruments or background music. It takes many hours of arrangement and practice in order to perfect a performance like this but VOCES8 pulls it off flawlessly.
