The King's Singers Come to Festival Place

On the heels of their Grammy Nomination for their 50th Anniversary Album GOLD, Festival Place is thrilled to present The King's Singers, February 8, 2019.

The King's Singers have consistently been welcomed on the world's great stages, from London's Royal Albert Hall to the Opera House in Sydney or New York's Carnegie Hall - as well as being ambassadors for musical excellence across the globe. Two Grammy Awards, an Emmy Award, and a place in Gramophone magazine's inaugural Hall of Fame sit among the numerous accolades bestowed upon the group.

The King's Singers were officially born on May 1st 1968, formed by six recently-graduated choral scholars from King's College, Cambridge. Their vocal line-up was two countertenors, a tenor, two baritones and a bass, and the group has never wavered from this formation since.

Their 50th Anniversary album, GOLD celebrates the amazing musical heritage of The King's Singers, and also looks at the bright future of vocal music in all its forms.

Festival Place continues to be Alberta's #1 Presenter of Professional Artists. The 2017/2018 season showcased an eclectic mix of over 80 incredibly talented performers. The 2018/2019 season carries on the same ambitious standard of entertainment, with over 30 performances already scheduled for 2019 with new shows added throughout the year.
