The Choir of King’s College, Cambridge, arguably the world’s most famous choir, is undertaking another Australian tour. It is travelling with two programs, both of which include a variety of music from the late Renaissance to the present day, and is performing in all mainland state capitals, as well as the national capital.

As a result of the curious removal of the organ from Hamer Hall some years ago, Melbourne has been treated to Program Two twice, first in Hamer Hall on Sunday evening, and then in the Elisabeth Murdoch Hall on Tuesday evening. Meanwhile, Program One, featuring the organ (principally in Maurice Duruflé’s Requiem), will be heard in Adelaide, Brisbane, Perth, and Sydney.
