Our 28th full season focuses on the people & places that represent our home city and its unparalleled artist community! Join us as we examine the various angles of life in Austin.
This season is about doubling down on the exploration of different perspectives—in a time when empathy is sorely lacking—while bolstering a growing community of joyful, enthusiastic, and compassionate singers. Our 2025-2026 season, “Austin Angles” kicks off in early fall, engaging a new slate of exceptional partnerships and collaborations across 3 core projects and 3 mini projects (with more likely to pop up soon!).
Registration will open for each project approximately 3 months prior to the performance date. Please check back frequently, sign up for our emails, or follow us on Facebook & Instagram to stay apprised of current offerings!
WHAT’S NEW THIS SEASON:
We're continuing to expand opportunities to add more and more singers through “mini projects.” We have 3 currently planned, and a couple more that might pop up for spring.
We’ll also be reexamining our registration process in an attempt to level the playing field for those who may not be able to register quickly or who may not have regular access to the technology needed to do so. Registration will stay open for a 2-week period, even after we exceed capacity. We will be assigning rosters after it closes, weighing factors like amount of recent participation, availability for other projects, number of projected absences, balance of voicing, etc, and focusing on extending as many opportunities to as many different people as possible across the whole year. (MORE INFO COMING SOON!)
We’ll continue to extend the “rehearsals only” option to singers who either were not selected for the performance window, cannot commit to the full schedule, or have performance anxiety of any kind!
We’re expanding our PANO YOUTH program into a full year of activities, with registration opening for the fall and spring semesters separately! Registration will open in late July for the fall semester.
FEMME GAZE
WITH VAMP
Austin Public Library
REHEARSALS: August 21–October 2, 2025
CONCERTS: October 4 & 5, 2025
We can’t wait to kick off our season with VAMP, a vocal quintet of formidable female artists touting a motley songbook and a bold red lip! Our Femme Gaze project will explore the concept of storytelling from (and for) the feminine perspective. With equal parts classical and pop, and an exciting slate of guest instrumentalists, this concert promises to be uplifting, joyful, and empowering, all while looking at the world from a femme angle.

SKOL
WITH NORDANFOLK
Location TBA
REHEARSALS: January 8–February 19, 2026
CONCERTS: February 21 & 22, 2026
Test out that Sherwood Forest ‘fit you’ve been assembling all year, and join us for a playful, Ren-faire themed collaboration with Texas band Nordanfolk. We’ll be adding chorus to this local Viking band’s music, which boasts spirited melodies, hypnotic rhythms, and complex harmonies in Norwegian, Icelandic, and Old Norse. We’ll bring all of those Renaissance Festival vibes, too, with theme-appropriate vendors, food and drink, and guest artists, all in one of Austin’s newest barn-style music venues. (To be announced soon.)
Registration opens in November 2025.
DIVAS
WITH DENSITY512
Propaganda HQ
REHEARSALS: March 26–May 14, 2026
CONCERTS: May 16 & 17, 2026
Density512 and Panoramic Voices team up once again to SLAY the end of the 2025-2026 season. Divas will feature music by prima donnas spanning multiple genres, genders, and decades, all re-imagined for chamber ensemble and choir. Similar to our fan-favorite That’s So Nineties program last fall, we’ll be co-commissioning local composers to arrange songs that hit you right in your nostalgia. And just like last season, we know our Density512 collab will be the party of the year—don’t miss it!
Registration opens in February 2026.
BLANTON ALL DAY
Blanton Museum of Art
REHEARSALS: October 9–November 6, 2025
CONCERT: November 8, 2025
We will be performing as part of the museum’s Blanton All Day program, which grants free museum entry to Austin residents once per month! Pano will perform works that complement the upcoming “Spirit & Splendor” Spanish Renaissance installation. Join Panoramic in this stellar space and enjoy the intersection of visual and performing arts.
Registration opens in September 2025. (~8 rehearsals)
LIGHT IT UP
Central Machine Works
REHEARSALS: November 13–December 6, 2025
CONCERTS: December 7, 2025
We’re expanding our annual Light It Up festival at Central Machine Works to include a proper performance. Join us in our favorite local brewery for an upbeat, casual program of holiday music, preceded by our annual “community caroling for voices and instruments.” We’ll be working on adding exciting vendors, collaborators, and activities to this early December gig, making the event as festive as they come; be there or be square!
Registration opens in September 2025. (~7 rehearsals)
MeSSIAH: PART 1
WITH CENTRAL TEXAS PHILHARMONIC
Klett Center for the Performing Arts
REHEARSALS: November 22–December 20, 2025
CONCERTS: December 21, 2025
We will be accompanying CTP in their performance of Messiah: Part 1 again this season! This is a condensed project with single rehearsals periodically throughout the fall. Singers should be comfortable learning their parts from practice tracks and music at home, as we will only rehearse a few times for this one. In other words, while all are welcome, this project may be challenging for beginners. The dress rehearsal and performance will both take place at the stunning Klett Center in Georgetown under the direction of Maestro Stefan Sanders!
Registration opens in September 2025. (~6 rehearsals)

Directed by Juli Orlandini, Panoramic Voices is an adventurous choral collective that thrives on a “music without borders” approach to music making. With collaborations spanning all genres from classical, country, rock, hip hop, and beyond, PV has worked with a dizzying array of artists such as Mobley, Roky Erickson, Carson McHone, Calliope Musicals, Zeale, and Grammy Award-winners Roomful of Teeth. The commissioning of new works has also been an important part of Panoramic Voice’s mission, resulting in the premiere of compositions by Pulitzer Prize-winner Caroline Shaw, Wilco’s Glenn Kotche, Austin luminary Graham Reynolds, and many more.
The ensemble has been widely recognized for its artistic endeavors, including “Best Choral Performance” from the Austin Critics’ Table, a cover story on Chorus America’s “The Voice” magazine, and regular listing among the Austin Chronicles “Top 10 Treasures.” The Austin American Statesman has hailed the group’s work as “always adventurous.”
In service to the greater Austin arts community, Panoramic Voices regularly partners with charitable organizations like the Health Alliance for Austin Musicians (HAAM), SIMS, and Kids In a New Groove (KING) to provide support to the well-being of Austin artists.
WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Our mission to provide exceptional choral experiences—free of traditional financial, emotional, and logistical boundaries—requires a whole lot of time, energy, and staff! Your support helps us provide FREE services to all who want them! Please consider a gift of any size to Panoramic Voices, and support “music without borders” in Austin, Texas!
