Within the space of a week, New York heard the two most renowned a cappella groups in the world: Chanticleer and the King’s Singers. The former is a 12-man ensemble from San Francisco; the latter is a six-man ensemble from England (King’s College, Cambridge). They both sang Christmas programs, Chanticleer at the Metropolitan Museum, and the King’s Singers at the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola, not too far from the museum.
