The King's Singers group says the concert in Florida was cancelled with just two hours' notice.

A Grammy award-winning a cappella group has said a Christian college in Florida abruptly cancelled a performance over the sexuality of some of its members.

"The college cannot knowingly give an implied or direct endorsement of anything that violates Holy Scripture, the foundation for our sincerely held beliefs," the school said in a statement. In a statement posted on social media on Monday, The King's Singers said the incident was the first time a performance had been cancelled at short notice in its 55-year history.

"Our belief is that music can build a common language that allows people with different views and perspectives to come together," it said.
