This is exactly how it should sound for the holiday season: tender, heartfelt, heart-warming, full of tension and with a certain mysterious sparkle. Or simply just like that breathtakingly beautiful version of »Ave Maria« that four utterly charming lads, wearing baseball caps, recorded on a staircase, uploaded to YouTube and garnered millions of views for. The vocal quartet is called Kings Return, because: »We are kings who set out to conquer. But above all, we return to give something back to our community.« Joyce DiDonato also heard these Kings, with their noble mission and the warm, shining gold in their voices, for the first time on the internet and got in touch immediately. Now they are sharing the stage and their Christmas programme is truly a gift. When four kings and a world-famous star with a divine voice welcome the Messiah, then the Christmas season can truly begin.
