HAE VOCES
Formed around Rapoport Remembered, a project commission Dutton received in 2018, she brought on vocalist Majel Connery and they formed Hae Voces. Too complex to be ambient, and too atmospheric to be rock, the duo was a blend of dreamy and arty, sidestepping verse/chorus form in favor of massive, shifting textures and lyrical climaxes. Latin for “these voices,” the duo pays homage to their classical training.
