Classical review: Chanticleer

Variously described as ‘An orchestra of voices’ (on their website), ‘a full-time male classical vocal ensemble in the United States’ (Wikipedia) and ‘the world’s reigning male chorus’ (New Yorker magazine), Chanticleer gave a stunning display of vocal technique and choral discipline that left me mightily impressed. I could not but admire the technical perfection that they brought to everything they sang. However, I left frustrated.
