Grammy-winning Chanticleer to visit TLU
San Marcos — Texas Lutheran University is bringing the Grammy Award winning vocal ensemble Chanticleer to Jackson Auditorium on Sunday, Nov. 9 at 5 p.m. Tickets will be available for the concert beginning Monday, Oct. 6.
Based in San Francisco, Chanticleer has developed a reputation for its vivid interpretations of vocal literature, from Renaissance to jazz, and from gospel to bold new music. With its blend of 12 male voices, ranging from countertenor to bass, the ensemble has earned international renown as “an orchestra of voices.”
Chanticleer has close ties to San Antonio as its founder, Louis Botto, grew up in the Alamo City. He founded the group in San Francisco in 1978. Chanticleer is presently the only independent full-time classical vocal ensemble in the United States.
Dr. Douglas Boyer, director of the TLU School of Music said, “Chanticleer’s performances sparkle with a purity of sound and a beauty unlike any you’ve ever heard.”
To obtain tickets call 830-372-6317 and leave your name, phone number, number of tickets required, and mailing address; or visit www.tlu.edu/chanticleer to order online.
For more information call 830-372-8024 or visit www.chanticleer.org.
