David Hurley (born August 1962)[2] is a British countertenor who sang with The King's Singers[3] from 1990 to 2016.
Hurley was a chorister at Winchester Cathedral, and a choral scholar at Winchester College and New College, Oxford.[4] He became a mainstay in the British countertenor scene shortly after becoming a King's Singer.[citation needed]
Hurley recorded, along with Tyson, Phoenix, Lawson, Gabbitas and Connolly, the 40-part piece Spem in alium by Thomas Tallis (2006), as well as the Grammy Award winning album "Simple Gifts" (2008).[5][6][7]
Hurley is now a teacher at Winchester College, where he teaches Music and Geography.
