The King’s Singers croon defiantly and sweetly in Canada following cancelled concert in the U.S.
The King’s Singers arrived for a performance at Toronto’s Koerner Hall on Thursday amidst a swirl of uproar and international media attention. One of their shows had been cancelled on religious grounds at a conservative college in Florida days earlier.
The King’s Singers are named after King’s College in Cambridge, England. Widely beloved for their serene and precise presentations of Bach, madrigals, spirituals and inoffensive pop music, they were blindsided by the decision. The sextet had played the venue previously without incident, and had given a concert the night before at Knowles Memorial Chapel in Winter Park, Fla.
Pensacola Christian College released a statement explaining that it cancelled the King’s Singers upon learning that one of the artists “openly maintained a lifestyle that contradicts Scripture.”
