One of the world’s most famous vocal ensembles The King's Singers are set to perform in Wiltshire.
Booking has just opened for Edington Arts' concert on Friday, May 15 at Edington Priory Church, starting at 7pm.
Three members of the group have previously sung in the Edington Music Festival choirs, making this a special homecoming event.
The programme for the evening includes European Romantic masterpieces, chansons, lieder, and part songs from the 19th and early 20th centuries which are 'vehicles for the deepest expressions of human feeling, desire and fantasy'.
Audiences should 'be ready for extraordinary story-telling and compelling thoughts on life, love, nature, death, and even the supernatural' by Edward Elgar and Ralph Vaughan Williams, Hugo Alfvé, Felix and Fanny Mendelssohn and Franz Schubert, and Claude Debussy, Maurice Ravel and Camille Saint-Saëns.
The concert will also feature the singers' signature close harmony for the second half, details of which will be revealed on the night.
Following the concert, audience members will have the opportunity for a short 'meet and greet' with the Singers before they head back to London to continue their hectic schedule.
Tickets can be purchased through the Edington Arts website or by phone on 01380 831256.
Organisers say they are anticipating strong demand and early booking is recommended.
