Artist Note
THE KING’S SINGERS on SIGNUM CLASSICS
Over the last few years The King’s Singers have worked closely with Signum
Records to produce a variety of recordings reflecting the wide range of our
repertoire. We decided to split into two groups of three to come up with content
for these CDs, under the rather loose and inaccurate titles of Classical and Light.
The first CD includes titles from Christmas, our debut album with Signum Records,
released in 2004, along with music from Landscape & Time, Treason & Dischord,
Gesualdo’s Tenebrae Responsories, Sacred Bridges, Siglo de Oro, Romance du soir, From
the Heart, High Flight and our 2012 release Royal Rhymes and Rounds. The second
CD presents songs from four albums: Six, From the Heart, our most recent light
album Swimming over London and the GRAMMY® award winning Simple Gifts.
If you would like to hear more, all these CDs are available on the Signum Records
label, and they include extensive programme notes about the repertoire, which for
reasons of tree conservation we are unable to reproduce here.
We hope you will enjoy listening to these two CDs as much as we enjoyed
compiling them.
The King’s Singers
Gesualdo: Tenebrae responsories

the Italian composer Carlo Gesualdo –

Their album High Flight includes works commissioned by The King’s Singers from
Eric Whitacre and Bob Chilcott. A DVD of Christmas repertoire was released for
December 2011.
The King’s Singers have an extraordinary history of television appearances. A
favourite of The Mormon Tabernacle Choir, they performed with them for the
Winter Olympics and appeared in their 2008 Christmas concert, which was
broadcast on PBS across the US to a combined live audience of 80,000 and is
available on DVD. Following their televised performance at the 2008 BBC Proms
in the Royal Albert Hall, London (also available on DVD – awarded a Midem
International Classical Award in January 2010), they have appeared on BBC
breakfast television and performed frequently on Songs of Praise.

Their album High Flight includes works commissioned by The King’s Singers from
Eric Whitacre and Bob Chilcott. A DVD of Christmas repertoire was released for
December 2011.
The King’s Singers have an extraordinary history of television appearances. A
favourite of The Mormon Tabernacle Choir, they performed with them for the
Winter Olympics and appeared in their 2008 Christmas concert, which was
broadcast on PBS across the US to a combined live audience of 80,000 and is
available on DVD. Following their televised performance at the 2008 BBC Proms
in the Royal Albert Hall, London (also available on DVD – awarded a Midem
International Classical Award in January 2010), they have appeared on BBC
breakfast television and performed frequently on Songs of Praise.

artistry through numerous workshops and masterclasses, and by publishing
prodigious quantities of sheet music: at present, they have over two million items
in circulation through their publisher, Hal Leonard. Their arrangements are sung
the world over by school and college choirs, and by ensembles both amateur
and professional.
