The thrill of Low Voices
Sedge Thomson presents wisdom for these times from three thoughtful and funny musical groups. We hear their stories and hear them sing in exquisite harmonies.
THE KING’S SINGERS — Which King is a mystery, yet their madrigalian virtuosity prepares them for the Beach Boys and the Beatles as well as Monteverdi. Renowned world-wide, the group gives us an intimate show.
GYUTO TANTRIC MONKS — In exile from Tibet, touring the world, fresh from Disneyland, they give us a consecration chant. The maroon berobed men give us a brief insight to their daily life, as well as a review of the Splash Mountain ride.
CONSPIRACY OF BEARDS — Men with passion, feeling, empathy and beards in fact or of the heart, sing songs of Leonard Cohen. They believe the world is a better place for their song arrangements. We agree.
