The London A Cappella Festival is back with its usual free-wheeling mix of unaccompanied vocal music, from 28 to 30 January 2016 at Kings Place, London. The festival is opened by the Tenebrae Consort, conductor Nigel Short, who will be launching their new CD Sun, Moon, Sea and Stars. The concert will be preceded by a pre-concert talk with Nigel Short and composer Bob Chilcott, and Bob will be leading one of the workshops on 30 January.
Also in the programme is USA country music favourites Home Free making their long-awaited UK debut, Naturally 7 bring their blend of RnB, Pop, Rock, Gospel and spirituals to the the Union Chapel, Opus Jam perform their own brand of Motown A Cappella and of course the Swingles who will be closing things. The Swingles will also be taking one of the other workshops, whilst Dominic Peckham and .Mark De-Lisser lead another.
Full information from the Kings Place website.
