A women's vocal ensemble like no other, the critically acclaimed Kitka, blends a contemporary sensibility with specialized vocal techniques from Eastern Europe that have been distilled over centuries. “The shimmering sounds of Kitka are cloth of gold thread in a sumptuous musical tapestry.” (San Francisco Examiner) Using only the pure unaccompanied voice, they create a constantly shifting landscape of sound, pulsing with angular rhythms, where dramatic dynamics leap from delicate stillness to shattering resonance, and unisons explode into lush incomprehensible chords. Kitka has “amazing harmonies…this is the most wonderful singing I have ever heard.” (David Crosby, CROSBY, STILLS AND NASH) The ensemble has produced 14 critically acclaimed recordings, soundtracks for major motion pictures and independent films, and a PBS television special.

“...a veritable feast for the ears, the eyes, and the mind. ”    — North Carolina Spectator
