Our Take

The ROYAL SCOTTISH NATIONAL ORCHESTRA and KELLEN GRAY's latest collaboration, "African American Voices," is a bold and ambitious exploration of the rich musical heritage of the African American community. From uplifting spirituals to soulful blues, this album takes listeners on a journey through the diverse sounds of African American music.

The orchestra's lush arrangements bring a new dimension to classic songs like "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" and "Wade in the Water," infusing them with a sense of grandeur and majesty. KELLEN GRAY's powerful vocals soar above the orchestra, capturing the emotional depth of each track with soul-stirring clarity.

But it's not just the classic songs that shine on this album. KELLEN GRAY's original compositions, such as "Freedom Song" and "Dreams of Home," showcase his talent as a songwriter and his ability to weave together elements of jazz, gospel, and R&B into a cohesive and captivating sound.

Overall, "African American Voices" is a triumph of musical collaboration, blending the timeless beauty of traditional African American music with the modern sensibilities of the ROYAL SCOTTISH NATIONAL ORCHESTRA and KELLEN GRAY. This album is a testament to the enduring power of music to transcend boundaries and connect us all in a shared celebration of the human experience. It's a must-listen for anyone who appreciates music that is both thought-provoking and uplifting.
