Reviews

‘What hits you first and leaves you last when listening to this project is the astonishing, exhilarating musicianship of these singers … looking back over 50 years of performances and recordings by The King’s Singers, it’s hard to think of a group whose music-making has aged so well. The joy, the generosity and the eclecticism of their earliest recordings are all still the defining qualities in their latest … here’s to 50 more years’ (Gramophone)

‘For King's Singers fans, this set is an automatic purchase. For others, its extraordinary versatility and consistent enjoyability are warmly recommended’ (BBC Music Magazine)» More
