"Boisterously breaking down nearly every conceivable genre barrier that ever existed for the string quartet, this audacious ensemble has changed our perception of not just what a string quartet can be, but what music can be in the 21st-century global village."

A musical treat! For over 30 years the King's Singers have been delighting audiences around the world with their charm, wit, and incomparable musicianship. Don't wait - the last time the OCMS presented the King's Singers, the concert sold out well in advance.

"When they sang in Fort Worth, the hall was jammed with young people who cheered them on as if they were a pop group. Part of the King's Singers' secret is an endearing informality and a recognition that art and fun are not mutually exclusive."
