The King's Singers is a group of singers, known for their skill in acappella song. Their name recalls King's College in Cambridge, England, where the group was formed by six choral scholars in 1968. The group still consists of six singers in total, with their membership changing over the years. Although the King's Singers are almost exclusively acappella in their live performances, they sometimes use one or two musical instruments to provide minimal accompaniment in their studio recordings.
