Chanticleer

One of the most prolific recording and touring ensembles in the world, Chanticleer loves Portland audiences almost as much as we love them! The Grammy award-winning vocal ensemble is known for its wide-ranging repertoire, dazzling virtuosity, and seamless blend of twelve male voices ranging from soprano to bass.

“The singing of Chanticleer is breathtaking in its accuracy of intonation, purity of blend, variety of color, and swagger of style.” Boston Globe

PROGRAM: Our American Journey

Chanticleer celebrates America’s 250th year of independence by showcasing the diverse voices, songs, harmonies, and rhythms of our shared musical heritage. The program traces the progression of the American choral tradition from Black gospel quartets to shape-note singing to barbershop quartets and vocal jazz, including settings of traditional American bluegrass tunes, beloved folk songs, and a new commission by Trevor Weston.
