Vivace Live is more than a group of musicians. We are a community who thrives on connecting with others while making beautiful music. 

  We seek out excellent musicians who value connection. We also look for musicians who are flexible, adventurous, responsible, and a tiny bit quirky.  We love performing together and If we aren't playing for YOUR party, you MIGHT find us throwing one of our own!
