The Swingle Singers - The Swingle Singers

Review by Eko Supriyanto

The Swingle Singers' self-titled album is a unique and captivating collection of vocal arrangements that showcase the group's impressive range and versatility. From the intricate harmonies of "Bach's Prelude No. 1" to the playful jazz-infused "Mozart's Sonata in C," the Swingle Singers demonstrate their mastery of both classical and contemporary styles.

One standout track is "Fugue in D Minor," which features a stunning display of vocal acrobatics as the singers seamlessly weave in and out of each other's parts. The group's precision and attention to detail are evident in every note, and their ability to create such complex textures with just their voices is truly remarkable.

The album also includes several original compositions, such as "Aria," which showcases the group's ability to create lush, atmospheric soundscapes. The Swingle Singers' use of vocal percussion and other vocal effects adds an extra layer of depth and interest to their music.
