The King's Singers
The King's Singers celebrate the wealth of music they have performed over the past 54 years in a work titled Masterpiece, a selection of some of their most iconic commissions.
Martin Handley presents The King's Singers performing live from Wigmore Hall in London. Since their formation at King's College, Cambridge, in 1968, many of the world's leading composers have written for The King's Singers. Today, as part of their Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert, they perform 'Masterpiece', which is a selection of some of their most iconic commissions. The King's Singers will also perform Joby Talbot's The Wishing Tree and a new commission from Ola Gjeilo.
