Chanticleer

April 1, 2008 at 7:30 p.m.

Hailed by the New Yorker magazine as “America’s favorite choral ensemble” and praised by the Los Angeles Times for its “luxurious perfection,” the GRAMMY® Award-winning vocal ensemble Chanticleer in 2006-07 performs over 80 concerts in 16 states across the U.S., a fall tour to Japan, and a seven-country European tour in early 2006. The ensemble’s 29th CD debuted in September 2005: Sound in Spirit is a powerful and unusual exploration of transcendent chant and other primal vocal expression.

 

Tickets for the April 1 concert may be purchased in the Lion's Den Book Store  (click for store hours), Elm Street Bookstore, Gramophone Shop or online at:
