The internationally renowned King’s Singers was founded in 1968, and named after King’s College Cambridge from where the ensemble members were all choral scholars.
The vocal ensemble is in global demand, touring in Europe, the United States, Asia and Australia. They are admired for their musical excellence with a delightful British sense of humour.
The King’s Singers are consummate entertainers. This is one of very few of their concert dates in the UK in 2016.
“The superlative vocal sextet.” The Times (London)
