The British vocal octet VOCES8, described as a “purring musical machine” by The Arts Desk , is equally at home with the intricate polyphony of Bach, the soaring melodies of Benjamin Britten, and the introspective lyricism of Ben Folds. Their ethereal collective voice finds its perfect home in the majestic Rockefeller Memorial Chapel for their early music-rooted program, Devotions. Please see Rockefeller Memorial Chapel Venue Updates for Fall 2026 . Ticket Rates (inclusive of fees) $14-$50 See Special Offers page for how to book Free Youth, $14 Student, $25 Under 35, and UChicago Faculty & Staff tickets.
