Such Stuff As Dreams A... - The King's Singers - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

The last album with the current line-up, The King’s Singers present a new album of choral music from the early 20th century, with a feature from sopranos Grace Davidson and Victoria Meteryard. “Such stuff as dreams are made on is an exploration of European choral music from the early 20th century (and a bit either side), much of it shaped and scarred by the spectre of conflicts that dominated the continent in that period. For us, the album has been a chance to develop and exercise new and different colours in our singing, to dive deeply into text-centric interpretations and historical context, to savour and cherish the four languages in which we sing here, and – in one instance – even to expand our forces a little.” - The King’s Singers PRAISE FOR SIGCD912 CLOSE HARMONY 5 stars “The current line-up of King’s Singers demonstrates their continued pre-eminence with these outstanding recordings of often very difficult arrangements…the Singers deliver with their usual mix of charm and skill” – Choir & Organ
