Radix Vocal Ensemble

Singing with clarity, authenticity, gratitude, and above all, joy.

Radix [RAH-deeks]: Latin, meaning “root”

The Radix Vocal Ensemble seeks to inspire in ourselves and in our audiences a deep appreciation for the beautiful diversity of human experience expressed through song. We also aim to strengthen community - both our own, and the circles of community that emanate from it - through vocal performances that are compelling, meaningful, and joyous.

Radix was thrilled and honored this year to receive a grant from the Regional Arts and Culture Council (RACC) to offer two community singing events in the summer of 2025. These “summer sings” will feature the singers of Radix as well as Portland-based folk artist and educator, Leela Grace, but also YOU out in the audience! Come and learn some beautiful traditional American folk songs in 3-part harmony, and spend a few hours in communion with your fellow humans. We’ll discuss the historical background of each song, as well as the tradition of communal singing in the United States. But most of all, we will raise our voices together to celebrate the joy of building community through song!
