- Voctave is an 11-member a cappella group based in Central Florida, United States. The group consists of several performers from the Voices of Liberty a cappella group at the American Adventure pavilion at the Epcot theme park at the Walt Disney World resort. The group often performs intricate arrangements of music from Broadway, Disney, jazz standards, and Christmas music. Among the unique characteristics which set the group apart from other a cappella groups is an extremely wide vocal range of 5 full octaves. The group's arranger is Jamey Ray, who also teaches at Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida. His arrangements blend classical group choral techniques with barbershop and gospel. Tony De Rosa served as musical director for the group from its inception until he left the group in early 2020, along with J. C. Fullerton. The group did not make an elaborate announcement of this change, with the last known mention of De Rosa and Fullerton being an advertisement for a concert in Texas for the Boerne Performing Arts organization. De Rosa was replaced as musical director by Bradley Roberts, one of the vocal captains in the "Voices of Liberty" at Walt Disney World's EPCOT. Drew Ochoa and Aaron Stratton joined the group shortly after the departure of De Rosa and Fullerton and recorded several YouTube videos with the group during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic in the spring of 2020. They are also included on the group's latest album, The Corner of Broadway and Main Street, Volume 2, which peaked at #6 on the iTunes sales chart in its first week of sales. (en)
