About

SOAKED IN COLOUR is a collection of music from different eras and genres, interpreted by the special line - up of four cellists and one singer. Early music meets jazz, art song meets pop song. The collective wanders through different epochs and styles of music history and each piece is specially orchestrated. SOAKED IN COLOUR takes you throug h a colourful mix of sounds, dives into the depths, surges once more into the air, and refreshes the senses.
