PROJECT THREE
“Music is the strongest form of magic.”
— Marilyn Manson
IMAGINE:
Where Music Meets Magic
What if music could bend reality? What if wonder had a sound?
In this groundbreaking performance, Vox Musica invites you into a world where choral artistry and illusion become one. IMAGINE: Where Music Meets Magic pairs the power of the voices of Vox music with the spellbinding artistry of famed magician and illusionist Douglas McCay — The Charismatic Conjuror.
This is not a concert with magic between the songs. This is music and magic woven together, each elevating the other.
To celebrate our 20th anniversary, Vox has commissioned world premiere choral works specifically composed to accompany magic—a first of its kind. These premieres, written by long-time Vox collaborator John Muehleisen and Composer-in-Residence Sarah Wald, blur the lines between what is heard and what is seen, what is real and what is imagined.
Sound will appear and disappear. Voices will shimmer like an illusion. Moments will make you question your senses. For twenty years, Vox Musica has imagined choral music differently. Now, we invite you to IMAGINE with us—to wonder, to dream, and to believe in the impossible.

Guest Artist
Douglas McCay, The Charismatic Conjuror
Douglas McCay is an internationally recognized magician and illusionist celebrated for his elegant, immersive approach to the art of magic. Performing under the moniker The Charismatic Conjuror, McCay blends timeless sleight-of-hand with theatrical storytelling to create moments of astonishment that linger long after the final illusion fades.
Based in California’s Bay Area, McCay has captivated audiences across the country with performances that range from intimate salon soirées to grand stage productions. His signature style—sophisticated, human, and full of wonder—invites audiences to rediscover their curiosity and sense of possibility. Whether appearing as a “mystery guest” at private gatherings, leading his acclaimed Wine & Magic Experience, or performing An Hour of Deception in elegant cabaret settings, McCay transforms ordinary spaces into realms of imagination.
A member of the Academy of Magical Arts at the famed Magic Castle in Hollywood, McCay is known not only for his technical mastery but for his magnetic stage presence and storytelling artistry. His work reminds us that true magic is not found in the trick itself, but in the shared moment of wonder between performer and audience.
