By WBJC Programming | Posted in Holiday Programs, Old Holiday | Comments Off on 12/20/13 – A Chanticleer Christmas – 10pm

A celebration of the season as told through the glorious voices of Chanticleer, the 12-voice San Francisco-based men’s choir.

The program spans the globe and the centuries — from England in the 1300s to new arrangements of classic contemporary carols.

Chanticleer: An Orchestra of VoicesCalled “the world’s reigning male chorus” by The New Yorker magazine, and named Ensemble of the Year by Musical America in 2008, the San Francisco-based, GRAMMY® award-winning ensemble Chanticleer embarks upon its 36th season in 2013-14, performing in 23 of the United States. A winter international tour of 9 European countries will see debuts in Dublin, Moscow, and St. Petersburg; and returns to Paris, Vienna, Budapest, Prague, Antwerp, Rotterdam, and Bruges. Praised by the San Francisco Chronicle for their “tonal luxuriance and crisply etched clarity,” Chanticleer is known around the world as “an orchestra of voices” for the seamless blend of its twelve male voices ranging from countertenor to bass and its original interpretations of vocal literature, from Renaissance to jazz, and from gospel to venturesome new music.
