Coming Up…
Tapestry
In 2017, La Caccina covered Joni Mitchell's Blue in its entirety, paying homage to one of the most influential singer-songwriters of the 20th and 21st centuries. For our final concert of the season, we'll cover another iconic album by a genius singer-songwriter: Carole King's Tapestry. This concert will feature new arrangements of King's iconic songs by members of the ensemble, as well as an opening act by the Fierezza a cappella ensemble of Spirito Singers.
We are here. We are her.

Our Artists
“La Caccina’s artistry embodies the voice of feminine wisdom, the perfect intersection of musical passion and social purpose.”
-Doreen Rao, conductor
Herstory
La Caccina was founded in 2011 by three friends who loved singing together. Since then, the ensemble has changed a lot, but we still love singing together. La Caccina finds its namesake in Francesca Caccini, a prolific Baroque composer known for her virtuosic musicality, expert compositions, and beautiful singing voice. Following in Caccini’s footsteps, the women of La Caccina bring a wide range of expertise to the ensemble, enabling them to easily adapt to diverse musical styles. La Caccina has collaborated with many ensembles, from bluegrass trios to symphony orchestras, and has commissioned and premiered works by Katherine Pukinskis, Augusta Read Thomas, Matthew Harris, Marie-Claire Saindon, and Melissa Dunphy, among others. No matter the music, La Caccina’s expressive, emotional singing highlights the versatility of the treble voice and brings musical excellence, integrity, and honesty to every performance.
