Moscow held the A Capella outdoor festival right now. It’s awesome!
The Moscow Spring A Cappella Festival is an open international contest for a cappella singers held as part of Moscow Seasons cycle of outdoor events. It’s 12 festival days, 195 participants at 51 venues!
I visited several venues, listened to a dozen vocal groups. The festival involves vocal groups from Russia, Georgia, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Singapore, Spain, Ukraine, USA, Germany, China, Israel, India, Korea, Portugal, Kazakhstan, England, Turkey, Austria, Philippines, Taiwan, Puerto Rico, Paraguay, Namibia, South Africa, Croatia, Sweden, and Finland.
All performers sing without musical accompaniment, this is called A Capella. Some groups have amazing beatboxers who provides musical support with their unique vocal beats.
It’s not only a festival but also a competition with a professional jury and large cash prizes. Also, all viewers can vote on the festival website.
Everything is done very professionally. I saw for the first time how sound engineers were working from an iPad, completely independent from a sound mixer. Awesome!
The festival is also visited by many tourists, and a lot is being done by the city administration to make every tourist feel at home. Some information materials and maps you can get absolutely free.
I’m so excited to visit the Festival! So cool music, so cool vocal groups from all around the world!
