THE KING'S SINGERS: LEGACIES

Lenard Chamber Music Series

The King’s Singers have represented the gold standard in a cappella singing on the world’s greatest stages for over fifty years. Renowned for their engagement with audiences, unrivalled technique, versatility, skill in performance, and consummate musicianship, they draw on the group’s rich heritage and pioneering spirit to create an extraordinary wealth of original works and unique collaborations. The group officially formed in 1968 when six recent choral scholars from King’s College, Cambridge, gave a concert at London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall. Jorgensen patrons will be treated to their Legacies recital program, celebrating monumental contributions to the world of music over the past 500 years.

PROGRAM INCLUDES:

  • William Byrd - O salutaris hostia à6
