A lively and fun­filled team made up of singers and vocal / choral trainers with a strong sense of stage                                       performance, dance and interactive performance.

The singers, Angie, Zalina, Stacey, Earl and Hekko are                 all very talented performers who, together create an               excellent blend of creativity, comedy, musical           arrangements, fantastic emcee skills, great         kids­appeal, dance and stage sense.

A lethal combination for a pow wow a cappella                 ensemble. The mission of this group is to work on                   each performance by creating and crafting an             audience­friendly and highly interactive show each           time.

The repertoire consists mainly of familiar tunes that will get everyone singing along as well as providing                                 them with an inspiring and light­hearted moment.

Angelina Choo is the founder of The A Cappella Society and is a music teacher and vocal trainer by day.                                       She sings the alto and tenor section depending on what’s needed in each arrangement. With her                               background as bass in an all female vocal group, Angie has developed a rich lower range that comes                                   very useful in UH.
