Part of Hancher's 51st season

One of the world's most beloved close-harmony vocal ensembles, The King's Singers return to Hancher to help you and your family celebrate the holidays! The Washington Post says, "Their vocal production was effortless, stylistically varied and beautifully blended." Undoubtedly the gold standard in a cappella singing, the ensemble will share a program filled with sounds of the season and other family favorites.
