The King's Singers in Concert | Calgary
"the clarity, control and communicativeness of the King's Singers' performance remained unparalleled." (Los Angeles Times)
Acclaimed worldwide for their virtuosity, life-affirming energy and charm, The King's Singers are in global demand. Their work, synonymous with the very best in vocal ensemble performance, appeals to a vast international audience. Performing to hundreds of thousands of people each season, the group tours regularly to Europe, North and South America, Asia and Australasia. Instantly recognisable for their immaculate intonation, vocal blend, diction and incisive timing, The King's Singers are consummate entertainers.
The group's repertoire has evolved to become one of the most diverse and compelling imaginable. The King's Singers have commissioned over 200 works, including landmark pieces from leading contemporary composers including Luciano Berio, György Ligeti, Sir James MacMillan, Krzysztof Penderecki, Toru Takemitsu, Sir John Tavener, Gabriela Lena Frank and Eric Whitacre.
Double Grammy award-winning artists, the group were honoured in 2009 for their Signum Classics release, Simple Gifts, and again in 2012 for their contribution to Eric Whitacre's Light and Gold album on Universal/Decca. Recently voted into Gramophone Hall of Fame, rave reviews and repeated sell-out concerts confirm that The King's Singers remain one of the world's finest vocal ensembles.
The King's Singers are proudly presented in Edmonton by Choir Alberta (www.choiralberta.ca).
