Introduction

In the thirty-five or so years they have been singing together, the four male singers in the Hilliard Ensemble have had the opportunity of working on projects that have definitely not been short on originality. Their involvement in Heiner Goebbels’ new staged concert is nevertheless a completely new adventure for them, stretching their individual and collective skills as ?performers?.
