Past event

“Close harmony singing doesn’t get much more flawless than this”, wrote The Times. “If the King’s Singers led the way for decades in polished a cappella performances, VOCES8 have been honing their own impeccable blend (and brand) on nearby ground for nearly 20 years.” Curious to hear what these two giants can do onstage together? This is your chance to find out!

Close harmony singing doesn’t get much more flawless than this

The Times

A unique opportunity to hear two of the world's most celebrated a cappella ensembles together on stage. The current a cappella world would not be the same without these two groups. These star ensembles – whom together set the gold standard in their field - came together in 2024 for their first concert at the Royal Albert Hall. This BBC Proms is already legend, having sold out every one of the hall’s 5000 seats. ‘A choral supergroup is born,’ according to The Times. All the more reason to reunite the ensembles for a one-off tour of 5 concerts in Belgium and the Netherlands.

Their STARS programme features timeless classical works and stunning contemporary arrangements, showcasing the full spectrum of choral singing at the highest level. From historic 16th-century masterpieces by Palestrina, to new arrangements such as ‘The Second Star to the Right’ from the Disney film Peter Pan, to Kate Rusby's ‘Underneath the Stars’, each group brings its own unique sound and personality to create musical magic. Whether you are already a lifelong fan or new to the genre, this is a performance you won't want to miss!
