Google The Oxford GargoylesAbout The Oxford Gargoyles
The Oxford Gargoyles, a student and youth company, perform a 60-minute jazz a cappella show at Other Yin, Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The ensemble delivers close harmony, slick choreography and black-tie charm across a range of styles — from Sinatra's swing and Simone's soul to the drama of West Side Story and classic pop hits. The sound is described as decadent, rich with sumptuous harmonies and vibrant rhythms, and is presented as an eclectic hour of music and chat from some of the brightest young talents in jazz vocal harmony.
Why see this show?
A student ensemble with genuine ambition, The Oxford Gargoyles cover an unusually wide sweep of jazz vocal styles. The black-tie presentation and audience participation warning suggest a polished night out with room for spontaneity.
