| Description | There are few music lovers who have not heard the name the Swingle Singers. Since 1963, this virtuosic eight-voice a cappella group has performed on the world’s most famous stages, sustaining a level of international popularity beyond the dreams of its founder, American-born Ward Swingle. The current London-based line-up of young and talented singers represents the modern incarnation of an ensemble whose music has evolved for nearly five decades. Along with the repertoire, the stage show has also grown into a full-blown lights-and-choreography spectacle. The beauty is that however the group has changed, the sound remains unmistakably that of the Swingle Singers, the same sound which caught the world’s attention all those years ago.
