Fort Wayne’s Voices of Unity Choir left for their European Tour Wednesday, June 29 and returned July 14.
They arrived in Rome for the Musica Eterna Roma festival and competition. One of the highlights was the July 3 performance at The Vatican. They sang several pieces that were written by gospel artists and composers. They were given a chance to sing seven songs.
After singing selections during Mass at The Vatican, the choir performed in Venice and Vienna, Austria and wrapped up with a competition in Budapest Hungary. The Unity founder and CEO, Mr. Marshall White teaches with heartfelt passion our student’s musicality as well as life skills.
