Leonard Pcarcey presents a history of the male-voice close-harmony groups that have emerged from King's College,
Cambridge. The King's Singers are undoubtedly the best-known of all the groups, and have done most to popularise this kindofmale-voicesound. But with the help of the early arrangers and the membersoithe
BACCIIOLIAN SINGERS, THE SCHOLARS, THE KING'S singers and the LIGHT blues the programme goes back to the roots of the movement and investigates how that sound was born, bred and brought from small amateur performances in Cambridge to a world-wide awareness. Producer JEREMY BIRCHALI.
