The Real Group works with Fifth Street and UVic Vocal Jazz in this special masterclass open for the public to attend.

The Real Group is one of the leading forces in the world of vocal music today, entertaining and inspiring international audiences using the voice as their sole instrument. Don’t miss your chance to catch the Real Group during their only Canadian stop on this tour.

Based out of Stockholm, Sweden, The Real Group has toured the globe for over 30 years with performances that include opening for the FIFA World Cup in South Korea, serenading the Emperor of Japan, and performing for The Royal Family in Sweden. Over the past three decades they’ve produced concert tours, TV programs, a cappella festivals, and 20 studio albums in their own name while supporting charities and establishing their own music education programs.

The Victoria-based vocal quintet, Fifth Street, combines the worlds of pop, jazz and R&B in perfect five-part harmony. The sublime voices of Natasha Penfield, Jilaine Orton, Ryan Narciso, Kenji Lee and Taylor Caswell found a groove together while students at UVic and as members of the UVic Vocal Jazz Ensemble.
