Cambridge Singers is an English mixed voice chamber/choral group formed in 1981 by their director John Rutter with the express purpose of making recordings under their own label "Collegium".

The main body of the group was first of all made up by previous Clare College singers where Rutter had previously been director.

They have been involved in the last 4 Fresh Aire albums (about "mankind's curiosities") of the Mannheim Steamroller band, by composer Chip Davis, but they are primarily a classical choral group.

They have recorded several highly acclaimed Christmas albums, including Christmas Night, Christmas Star, Christmas with the Cambridge Singers, and The Cambridge Singers Christmas Album.
