Part of the CHAMBER MUSIC SERIES

 

Chanticleer – based in San Francisco – is known around the world as “an orchestra of voices” for the seamless blend of its twelve male voices ranging from countertenor to bass and its original interpretations of vocal literature, from Renaissance to jazz, and from gospel to venturesome new music.

 

“Chanticleer fascinates and enthrals for much the same reason a fine chocolate or a Rolls Royce does: through luxurious perfection.” (Los Angeles Times)

Vilnius’ audience will be treated to the works by Italian, French, Flemish and German Renaissance masters, 20th–21st c. American, Irish, French, Hungarian, Chinese, Cuban and Dominican academic music as well as folksongs, popular songs and spirituals.
