Who We Are
aboutThe a cappella scene has its annual meeting in Graz to compete for the highly coveted Ward Swingle Awards. In this week, where so many a cappella enthusiasts meet, you can feel the spirit of community over competition. Even the audience can feel this positive atmosphere and is surprised again and again be the versatility of the human voice. vokal.total is more than a competition. We represent the diversity and joy of music. We are a steppingstone into a career in the music business. The whole team, easy to recognize by their red t-shirts, define the success of our competition. Together we inspire the a cappella world to more creativity, passion and friendship. Through our years of experience, our reliable and high quality work we want to be a platform across cultures to build international bridges and strengthen the sense of solidarity.
