Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - It's that time of year again... time for the Vallarta Vocalista Ensemble's Spring Concert Series! That's right, our very own octet returns to Incanto in March and April for six incredible performances, featuring the most beautiful harmonies this town has ever heard!

These performances are the culmination of another full year of hard work to excite, entertain and stimulate our local audiences. The diverse repertoire Puerto Vallarta has come to expect will be on full display: Spirituals, Pop, a medley from Fiddler on the Roof, Madrigals, Latin favorites, Beatles classics, and several gorgeous, unclassifiable, gems.

The ensemble, founded in 2016 was the smash hit of the 2017 and the 2018 season, playing to sold-out audiences. Members of the original group, Kathy Overly, Sharon Baughman-White, Suzanne Kirkpatrick, Jean-Guy Comeau, Carl Timothy and David White, are joined by Gene Berube, who came to the group last year, and this year; the acclaimed performer at Act II, soprano, Marsha Ward Ross. The incredibly talented Jean Guy accompanies on piano as well as performs as a singer.

The program will feature a vocal solo by guest artist, Patsy Meyer. As a songwriter, Meyer has been nominated for an Emmy three times in the Best Original Song category, and more than 80 of her songs have been used in film and TV. Her voice has been featured on commercials for Fortune 500 companies. Meyer and husband, composer/producer John Henry Kreitler, divide their time between their homes in northern Kentucky and Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. She will also accompany the group on percussion for several pieces.

Comments from past audience members include:

"I'd be remiss if I didn't pass along news of an incredible vocal ensemble which recently made its debut. The Vallarta Vocalistas blew our socks off in a mesmerizing performance, which truly dazzled. I am still marveling at the ensemble's exquisite harmony, their cohesion and playful camaraderie, the nuanced dynamics of delivery, their lovely blend of voices, the refreshing diversity of their repertoire, and their easy professionalism."

"...the Vallarta Vocalistas are inspirational in their commitment to realizing a goal, through discipline, practice, mutual respect, singleness of purpose and collaboration, bolstered by a wealth of talent, shared equally among 8 accomplished individuals, whose contribution to the Puerto Vallarta entertainment scene is much appreciated. Major kudos to all of the ensemble's members."

"We were lucky enough to catch a rehearsal recently. It was one of the highlights of our season in Vallarta. The interplay between the singers was like a jazz improvisation. They are really first class."

"I usually make a point not to use the 'OMG' expression, but, OH, MY, GOD! You have a very good show, and you are unique in this town. This is difficult stuff and you are all quite amazing artists."

"I snuck into the dress rehearsal of Vallarta Vocalista Ensemble this morning and the world has to know that something remarkable is about to happen in PV. This new vocal ensemble is eight professional local singers who have put together what we haven't seen in decades here - a vocal ensemble of truly professional quality, a truly listenable concert... So professional, it made me think I'd died and gone to Manhattan."

Tickets are available at the Incanto box office, located at Insurgentes 109, overlooking the Rio Cuale on the south side of Puerto Vallarta, or online at incantovallarta.com.
