TENETWednesday, July 11, 7:30 p.m.
TENET Vocal Ensemble
Founded in 2003, TENET is a vocal ensemble under the artistic direction of soprano Jolle Greenleaf. The ensemble strives to bring lesser-known works to the ears of the public and to perform well-known works with a fresh approach. As a program-based ensemble, distinguished soloists who also shine as ensemble singers are selected to fit the demands of each individual concert. Works are generally performed one-voice-to-a-part, and TENET frequently collaborates with other ensembles and organizations.
