Swingle Singers - Les Romantiques
Review by David Sullivan
Les Romantiques, the latest album from the Swingle Singers, is a beautiful collection of romantic classics that will transport listeners to another time and place. The album features stunning arrangements of beloved pieces by composers such as Chopin, Ravel, and Debussy, all expertly performed by the talented vocal ensemble.
The Swingle Singers' trademark precision and harmony are on full display throughout the album, with each track showcasing the group's impressive vocal range and dynamic abilities. From the hauntingly beautiful "Clair de Lune" to the soaring "Nocturne in C-sharp minor," every piece is a masterpiece in its own right.
One standout track is the Swingle Singers' rendition of "Adagio for Strings," which is given a fresh and unique treatment that is both moving and uplifting. The album's closing track, "Boléro," is also a highlight, with the group's voices building to a thrilling crescendo that is sure to leave listeners breathless.
