Cambridge Singers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cambridge Singers is an English mixed voice chamber/choral group formed in 1981 by their director John Rutter with the primary purpose of making recordings under their own label "Collegium".
The group initially comprised former singers from Clare College, where Rutter had previously been the music director.
They have been involved in the last four 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.
