Is it the combination of perfect harmony and clever humour that has made them irresistible for over fifty years? Come, hear and see for yourself: The King’s Singers in action, with the close harmony repertoire that has formed the heartbeat of their phenomenal catalogue of music since 1968. This concert is a cross between a travel diary and a ‘best of’, with each section of the programme revealing the next chapter in the ensemble’s already legendary career. Discover their unique sound on a journey through folk melodies, classical parodies and pop songs. At the wheel are six singers who shift effortlessly between Gordon Langford arrangements and contemporary adaptations of Jacob Collier and Ed Sheeran, alternating between The Beatles, Billy Joel and Rossini’s Barber of Seville.
