The King's Singers - Nightsongs
Review by Adam Kaganovich
Nightsongs by King's Singers is a beautiful album that showcases the group's exceptional vocal harmonies and musicality. The album features a selection of songs inspired by the night, including classics such as "Stardust" and "Night and Day," as well as lesser-known pieces like "Blackbird" and "Seal Lullaby."
The King's Singers' rendition of these songs is nothing short of stunning. Their voices blend seamlessly together, creating a rich and full sound that is both soothing and uplifting. The group's attention to detail is evident in every track, with each note and phrase perfectly executed.
One standout track on the album is "Lullabye (Goodnight, My Angel)," which features a hauntingly beautiful melody and poignant lyrics. The King's Singers' rendition of this song is particularly moving, with their voices conveying a sense of warmth and comfort that is sure to soothe even the most restless of souls.
