From the group's website:
The vocal octet Octarium, based in Kansas City, has gained a national reputation for performances suffused with what composer Morton Lauridsen called, "stunning artistry combined with an absolutely beautiful blending of voices."

"Octarium is a surprise, a delight and a wonderful fresh presence on the choral music scene: beautiful voices, stylish singing, bursting with craft and vitality — an immaculate vocal chamber ensemble of soloists."
Simon Carrington, Founding member of the King's Singers

"Octarium possesses a freshness and clarity of tone and amazing ESP. Their voices radiate the joy of each other's company and then pass that joy on to the audience..."
Stephen Hatfield, composer
