Chanticleer loves Spivey Hall, and Spivey Hall audiences adore Chanticleer. The superlative San Francisco-based, 12-member male vocal ensemble was honored as Musical America's 2008 "Ensemble of the Year." This incomparable “Orchestra of Voices” performs a rich diversity of music in two different programs. On Friday, April 17, Wondrous Free celebrates 300 years of American song featuring Samuel Barber’s Reincarnations plus works by William Billings, Eric Whitaker, David Conte, and P.D.Q. Bach, plus folk songs, popular songs and spirituals. On Saturday, April 18, Divine Tapestry explores a wealth of sacred works, ranging from early music by Victoria and Desprez to John Tavener’s “Village Wedding” and the traditional spirituals “Rock a My Soul,” “Deep River,” and “Hold On!”
