In 2018, Common Ground Voices opened up for singers from all over the world and met in Jerusalem for a weeklong rehearsal residency. This residency included extensive rehearsals, group discussions, creative exercises and a concert. Following this residency, Common Ground Voices appeared at the Musica Sacra International Choral festival in Marktoberdorf, Germany in May. The group also made “reach outs” performing at a prison and other places.
