One of the most prolific recording and touring ensembles in the world, Chanticleer loves the Portland audience. The Grammy-award-winning vocal ensemble is known for its wide-ranging repertoire, dazzling virtuosity, and seamless blend of twelve male voices, ranging from soprano to bass.

PROGRAM: Our American Journey

Chanticleer celebrates America’s 250th year of independence by showcasing the diverse voices, songs, harmonies, and rhythms of a shared musical heritage. The program traces the progression of the American choral tradition from Black gospel quartets to shape-note singing to barbershop quartets and vocal jazz, including settings of traditional American bluegrass tunes, beloved folk songs, and a new commission by Trevor Weston.
