Perfect singing, appropriately powerful vocal writing from an intensely powerful composer.
This cd is the first Accentus disc I've bought, and it is simply fantastic. Loving Strauss in general, and having a little foreknowledge of his vocal output, I was not surprised by the thick texture and intensely Straussian harmonic language in these pieces for mixed a cappella choir (except that the Traumlicht piece is for just male voices).
Strauss' characteristic usage of constant harmonic shifts, long climaxes with sudden drops and retakes, and interweaving melodic lines are given special brilliance when put to the human voice. This medium works beautifully, and the perfection of tone, balance, and dynamics in Accentus and the Latvian Radio Choir under Laurence Equilbey don't hinder in any way. Most heartily recommended.
