Debates are churning after a Florida college abruptly canceled an appearance by a prominent singing group due to at least one member’s sexuality.
The King’s Singers are a highly regarded British a cappella ensemble with more than 50 years of history. The all-male group performs a range of songs, including pop music, classical arrangements and sacred music. The group says a February 11 concert at Pensacola Christian College was canceled with “two hours’ notice” because of “‘concerns’ about the ‘lifestyle’ of members of our group.
” It goes on to say that scripture forbids “sexual immorality including adultery, fornication, homosexuality, bestiality, incest, and use of pornography.” The college also said the artists were “treated with dignity and respect when informed of the cancellation.” The King’s Singers said they have performed at the college before. The controversy has resonated both within the small liberal arts college and beyond.
