劍橋合唱團

劍橋合唱團（Cambridge Singers，亦有譯作「劍橋歌手」），是英國一隊專業的混聲合唱團，由約翰·盧特擔任指揮及音樂總監，成員主要來自劍橋大學克萊爾學院合唱團（英語：Choir of Clare College, Cambridge）的前成員。盧特也曾於1975至1979年期間擔任過此合唱團的指揮多年^[1]。

相比一般合唱團以公開表演為主，劍橋合唱團較專注於錄音製作方面，並且創立了自家品牌Collegium Records（英語：Collegium Records）。主要灌錄盧特的合唱作品，亦會灌錄其他古典作曲家的合唱作品、宗教音樂及新世紀音樂等。累積已發行約40張唱片。
