Twelve voices coalesce in a seamless chorus with intricate harmonies that uplift and inspire.

Renowned worldwide for their unmatched vocal artistry and captivating stage presence, Chanticleer is named for the "clear-singing" rooster in Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. The chorus boasts an expansive vocal range—from countertenor and tenor to baritone and bass—and a repertoire that spans centuries—from Gregorian chant, Renaissance polyphony and Romantic art song to contemporary music, jazz, spirituals and world music. Join and be swept away on a breathtaking musical journey beneath the beautiful arches of Rollins Chapel. The program includes Renaissance motets by William Byrd and Heinrich Isaac, classic arrangements of familiar folk songs like Shenandoah and Calling my children home, settings of the jazz standards Blue Skies and Lost in the Stars, as well as contemporary arrangements of Joni Mitchell's Both Sides Now and Queen's Somebody to Love.

Chanticleer's acclaimed Music Director Emeritus Joseph H. Jennings received the Brazeal Wayne Dennard Award for his contribution to the African American choral tradition during his tenure with the ensemble.
