An American Holiday: Spirit of Appalachia- Performed by Ramapo College Vocal Ensembles CantaNOVA, Skylark, and Take12

The Ramapo College vocal ensembles have received international acclaim for their innovative programming and diverse repertoire.



CantaNOVA’s accolades include a 2010 feature concert at Bohemian National Hall sponsored by the United Nations.  Skylark — an all female group — has delighted audiences since 2007 with their eclectic mix of jazz and contemporary music.  The men’s group, Take12 performs classical and new arrangements, including music that showcases their falsetto ranges!



In the past five years, the Ramapo College ensembles performed in Vienna, Prague, Costa Rica, Guam, the Philippines and just returned from a 2013 summer concert tour to Finland, Estonia, and Russia.  In competition with choirs from South Africa, China, Russia, and throughout Europe, the Ramapo choirs entered seven program categories and won medals in each, including a gold medal for Take12.  This concert is free. The music is priceless!  Seat are on a “first come” basis.
