GRAMMY Award winners in 2009, the King's singers are one of the world's most celebrated ensembles. Their programming concept in this dic is unique: built upon the individual clauses of the Lord's Prayer, beginning and ending in plainchant, it ranges over the centuries to explore the spiritually charged text. Chant is at the ehart of the programme, and each composer's setting illuminates the others, shredding rich interpretative light on the poetic and devotional aspects of the prayer. One of the world's most celevrated ensembles, the King's Singers have a packed schedule of concerts, recordings, media and education work that spans the globe. Championing the work of both young and established composers, they are instantly recognisable for their spot-on intonation, impeccable vocal blend, flawless articulation of the text and incisive timing. They are also consummate entertainers: A class act with a delightfully British wit.
