Our Take

Prepare to have your eardrums tickled and your mind blown by the latest collaboration from Thomas Walker, Philip Mayers, Cappella Amsterdam, and Daniel Reuss. In their rendition of Janacek's Choral Works, this ensemble delivers a masterful performance that is both captivating and haunting.

From the moment the first note of "Ave Maria" hits your ears, you'll be transported to a world of sublime beauty and melancholy. Walker's ethereal vocals soar above the delicate piano accompaniment by Mayers, creating a sense of otherworldly enchantment. The haunting harmonies of Cappella Amsterdam and Reuss' deft conducting add to the overall sense of mystery and allure.

But don't be fooled by the beauty of this album - there is a darkness lurking beneath the surface that adds an extra layer of depth. Tracks like "Glagolitic Mass" and "Elegy on the Death of My Daughter Olga" explore themes of loss, grief, and redemption, drawing the listener in with their raw emotional power.

Overall, Janacek: Choral Works is a must-listen for any music lover looking to experience something truly special. With its combination of exquisite vocals, masterful instrumentation, and profound emotional resonance, this album is a true masterpiece that will leave you speechless. Bravo to Walker, Mayers, Cappella Amsterdam, and Reuss for delivering a work of art that will stand the test of time.
