The King’s Singers have set the gold standard in a cappella singing on the world’s greatest stages for over 55 years. Their extensive discography has led to numerous awards, including a place in Gramophone magazine’s inaugural Hall of Fame.
The first half of their programme – ‘Angels, Demons, Mother, Son’ – is structured around Geoffrey Poole’s Wymondham Chants, written for them in 1970, interspersed with music by Byrd, Palestrina, Pärt, Duruflé and others. The second half brings ‘Songs of harmony and hope’, to be introduced by the singers.
