Vocal Point
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vocal Point is Brigham Young University’s premiere contemporary a cappella ensemble. Founded by students in 1991, Vocal Point was quickly adopted into BYU’s School of music. Vocal Point's nine-man vocal firepower propels harmonies far beyond traditional four-part possibilities with inventive arrangements, humor, and remarkable vocal percussion.
Vocal Point competes annually in the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella where they repeatedly earn high rankings. In April 2006, the group won the competition, earning the title of International Champions.[1]
Vocal Point is also the name of an a capella group at the University of Delaware. Unlike the above group, they are co-ed.
