A cappella icons join forces in a celestial programme of ancient polyphony and modern gems
Two iconic vocal ensembles, together on one stage. The King’s Singers and VOCES8 belong to the absolute world elite of a cappella music. In 2024, they shared the stage at the Royal Albert Hall for the first time during the BBC Proms - a legendary performance for which all 5,000 tickets sold out in the blink of an eye. 'A choral supergroup is born,' wrote The Times. Now they once again unite their voices for an exclusive tour.
With STARS, they present an enchanting programme in which heavenly sounds and timeless music converge. From the 16th-century polyphony of Palestrina to modern gems such as Underneath the Stars by Kate Rusby and The Second Star to the Right from Peter Pan, interspersed with brand new compositions such as Stardust by Taylor Scott Davies.
The refined technique and impeccable harmony of The King’s Singers blend with the warm, layered sound of VOCES8 to create a magical listening experience. Whether you have been a fan for years or are attending your first a cappella concert: this evening will shine brightly for a long time to come.
