Friends of Chamber Music: Chanticleer
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
One of the most prolific recording and touring ensembles in the world, Chanticleer loves Portland audiences almost as much as we love them! The Grammy-award-winning vocal ensemble has been hailed as the “world’s reigning male chorus” by The New Yorker, and is known for its seamless blend of twelve male voices ranging from soprano to bass.
Presented by Friends of Chamber Music.
Program: "Sing Joyfully"
A jubilant celebration of choral singing from Renaissance masterworks to Romantic partsongs, contemporary commissions, vocal jazz, and everything in between. Repertoire includes motets by William Byrd and Heinrich Isaac, classic arrangements of familiar folk songs like “Shenandoah,” settings of jazz standards like “Blue Skies,” as well as contemporary arrangements of Joni Mitchell’s “Both Sides Now” and Queen’s “Somebody to Love.”
