2011-2012 Fine Arts Season Performance

Presented in partnership with L Style G Style

Hailed by The New Yorker as “the world’s reigning male chorus,” San Francisco’s Grammy Award-winning Chanticleer returns to Texas Performing Arts to help celebrate our 30th season. The choir is recognized around the world as an orchestra of voices for the seamless blend of its twelve male voices ranging from countertenor to bass. From Renaissance to jazz, gospel to adventurous new music, Chanticleer’s programs are rich with original interpretations of vocal literature.

“The singing of Chanticleer is breathtaking in its accuracy of intonation, purity of blend, variety of color and swagger of style.”
