5.0 out of 5 stars Unusual collection, superbly performed, 12 Jul 2003
By Gontroppo "Music and Theology Lover" (Bathurst, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
It took me a while to get used to Street Songs. So if you buy a copy, you may have to stick with it for a couple of playings, before you are able to appreciate it.

Rossini went to a performance of Wagner's opera, Lohengrin, and said afterwards: I don't think you can fully appreciate Lohengrin on first hearing, and I certainly do not intend to hear it a second time! But please, do listen several times. It *is* worth it!

The combination of marimba and vocal group is unusual, but effective. You also get a couple of solos from Evelyn Glennie and 2 performances by the King's Singers without percussion accompaniment.

Street Songs is split up on the album to create an interesting program. But you can, of course program your compact disk player to hear it all at once. My favourite part of this set of songs is the interesting arrangement of Oranges and Lemons [which is mostly not the familiar tune, but it does give it a nod].

There are some great moments in Klatzow's Return of the Moon. I also enjoyed hearing the group singing Lalela Zulu. A terrific, lively set of pieces.

We have listened to The King's Singers since their first album appeared. Although there is not a single original member remaining, I think this is still identifiably of that original oeuvre. It is definitely reminiscent of some early King's Singers classical recordings.

Recommended for those who like listening to something challenging. If you have only heard their popular CDs [such as Beatles Connection or Good Vibrations] you will find this very different.
