Welcome to the official website of the Internationally Acclaimed Jazz Vocal Group
New York Voices
Hello Friends, Welcome to our world. After 38 years of recording, touring and living our musical lives together, we are writing our final chapter. At the end of 2026, we are hanging up our microphones and waltzing into other solo endeavors that have been ruminating and retiring our beloved musical family. We are grateful for the many collaborations we have shared with artists like The Count Basie Orchestra, Paquito D’Rivera, Ivan Lins, The Boston Pop, and the list goes on. We have grown and morphed ourselves into as many possible vocal contortions as our voices could convey and we’re grateful for the journey. It has taken us to all parts of the globe while reminding us home is precious, family is everything and music is the great and wise communicator. We hope you have caught a show, listened to a record or two or attended one of our many educational events we have presented over the years. We have many shows populating our calendar as we wrap things up, so check it out and sign up for our email list. We’ll keep you posted on what’s going on and how you can help us celebrate our career in the only way musicians know how to do….SING, PLAY, REPEAT!
Yours in Music – Lauren, Kim, Peter and Darmon

Check out our latest release Reminiscing in Tempo
Threading the ages, New York Voices weaves their vocal arranging and elegant point of view on melody, harmony and shape through composers they admire on their latest outing. Ellington, Corea, Brubeck, Hersch, Porter, Lennon and McCartney, Lins and Cuba’s Cervantes are the welcoming prisms for them to ring their voices into a fine tapestry of color, sound and light. Produced while celebrating their 30th year together as an ensemble, they have gathered this collection into what is a curator’s wish list for an evening’s program. Taking these compositions in their care, they tend to invert, change time signature and reharm, but never so far that the lyric doesn’t sing front and center. And with intermittent a cappella palate cleansers throughout the sequence, the listener gets to experience the set as the artist envisioned. Also included in this fine array of compositions are two from the group, allowing just enough room to insert a few originals to complete their “Reminiscing in Tempo.”
