Our Take

*Album Review: JUSTIN TAYLOR / THEOTIME LANGLOIS DE SWARTE - Les Freres Francoeur*

In a world where classical music is often perceived as stuffy and highbrow, Justin Taylor and Theotime Langlois de Swarte come along with their collaboration on "Les Freres Francoeur" to shake things up. This album is anything but your typical classical fare - it's quirky, fun, and downright infectious.

From the opening notes of the first track, it's clear that these two musicians are not afraid to push boundaries. The harpsichord and violin work together in perfect harmony, creating a sound that is both traditional and modern. It's like Vivaldi meets Vampire Weekend.

The standout track has to be "Rondeau: Les cyclopes." This piece is a rollercoaster of emotions, with moments of pure joy followed by sudden drops into melancholy. It's a wild ride that will leave you breathless and wanting more.

Overall, "Les Freres Francoeur" is a delightful romp through classical music with a modern twist. Justin Taylor and Theotime Langlois de Swarte have crafted an album that is sure to resonate with both classical purists and indie music lovers alike. So grab your monocle and your skinny jeans, because this album is a must-listen for anyone looking to inject a bit of fun into their classical music collection. Pitchfork rating: 8.5/10.
