The King’s Singers

The King’s Singers have set the gold standard in a cappella singing on the world’s greatest stages for over fifty years. They are renowned for their unrivaled technique, musicianship and versatility, which stem from both the group’s rich heritage and its drive to bring an extraordinary range of new and unique works, collaborations and recordings to life. The King’s Singers’ extensive discography has led to numerous awards, including two Grammy® Awards, an Emmy® and a place in Gramophone magazine’s inaugural Hall of Fame.

The group officially formed in 1968 when six recent choral scholars from King’s College in Cambridge gave a concert at London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall. By chance, the group consisted of two countertenors, a tenor, two baritones and a bass. The group has stayed with this singular formation since their debut. Alongside their demanding performing and recording schedule — with over 100 concerts every season — the group also leads educational workshops and residential courses across the globe, working with both ensembles and individuals on their approaches to group singing.
