As part of King's College Choir, the Choral Scholars have toured extensively in Europe, Australia, Hong Kong, Japan, and the USA. As ‘Collegium Regale’, the group provides entertainment at dinners and conferences, as well as giving frequent concerts, notably at Easter when they split into two groups which tour the North and South of England.
The programme for these concerts reveals the breadth of their repertoire: sacred music from the fifteenth to the twentieth century, madrigals, folk-songs, part-songs and close harmony. This diversity of styles reflects the variety of the Choral Scholars’ talents, with groups such as ‘The Scholars’ and ‘The King’s Singers’ emerging from their ranks.
For more information on the group, please see their website at www.collegiumregale.co.uk.
They have recently released CDs containing a wide range of music from Christmas plainsong and 15-17th century motets, through to close harmony arrangements of traditional carols and songs including Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer. They are available from The Shop at King's.
