Since forming in 2007, VIDA has performed to critical acclaim in major American and European venues. VIDA's ability to "conjure up an orchestral palette of color and effects" (Classic FM) combined with their "exquisite tonal and dynamic control" has firmly established them as a masterful ensemble that sparkles with "vitality and spontaneity" (Acoustic). VIDA performs a diverse program of lush arrangements from traditional British folk songs to Bach to Gershwin.
