Dig Deeper
This brand new Christmas album from The King's Singers features 25 tracks covering everything from contemporary choral gems and folk songs through to well-loved carols. Dotted throughout the album are several of the most famous English church carols, which take The King's Singers right back to their earliest singing days, and which also reflect the group's heritage at King's College, Cambridge. In Christmas Carols with The King's Singers, the group bottle that frosty, moonlit, fireside Christmas wonder and pour it into their sound. The King's Singers have represented the gold standard in a cappella singing on the world's greatest stages for over fifty years. They are renowned for their unrivalled technique, versatility and skill in performance, and for their consummate musicianship, drawing both on the group's rich heritage and it's pioneering spirit to create an extraordinary wealth of original works and unique collaborations.
