March 24, 2026Elegant and Inspiring performances
RammDance has performed with Areté Singers 3 times and I was thoroughly pleased with the result. They brought beauty and elegance to our concert which enthralled and inspired our audience. Truly a wonderful experience combining their modern dance aesthetic to renaissance music. There are truly talented and a joy to watch.
