Our Take

Upon first listen, RAPHAEL ENSEMBLE's latest offering, "Korngoldschoenbergstrings," is a cacophony of sound that leaves you both bewildered and intrigued. The album fuses the classical influences of Korngold with the avant-garde stylings of Schoenberg, resulting in a truly unique and complex listening experience.

The opening track, "Prelude to a Nightmarish Symphony," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its haunting strings and dissonant melodies. It's as if you've been transported to a dark and twisted carnival, with each movement taking you further down the rabbit hole of musical madness.

As the album progresses, the complexity of the compositions becomes more apparent, with layers upon layers of strings weaving in and out of each other in a mesmerizing dance of chaos. Tracks like "The Dissonance Waltz" and "Elegy for a Dying Theme" showcase the ensemble's mastery of their instruments, as they navigate through the intricate melodies with precision and skill.

Overall, "Korngoldschoenbergstrings" is a challenging listen, but one that is rewarding for those willing to immerse themselves in its unorthodox beauty. RAPHAEL ENSEMBLE has created a truly original piece of art that pushes the boundaries of classical music, and for that, they should be commended. So, grab your headphones, press play, and prepare to be astounded by the musical genius of RAPHAEL ENSEMBLE.
