About
‘Close Harmony’ is the latest musical offering from Grammy Award winning and internationally acclaimed vocal group The King’s Singers. A combination of newly recorded works and tracks from their The Library EP series, the album takes a deep-dive into one of the most beloved and unique corners of their music library: the close-harmony arrangements. New arrangements feature from composers Daryl Runswick (such as an imaginative, exciting version of Rossini’s Barber of Seville Overture) and John Rutter (Jerome Kern’s The Way You Look Tonight) showcasing the diversity of both their talent and the repertoire they present.

It’s certainly a generous helping and there is no denying the artistry of both the singers and arrangers. It’s a heady mix from ‘Crocodile Rock’ to The Barber of Seville, though the highlight is surely ‘Master-piece’, the lyrics a hotchpotch of composer names, works and music terms.

Sometimes it's nice to sit back and relax with something that's easy to listen to, and this new a cappella album from The King's Singers perfectly fits the bill...Highlights for me include 'Rhythm of Life', 'The Rose' and 'She's Like The Swallow', but the whole thing is fun, engaging, and performed with beautifully balanced and nimble singing.
