Our Take

Ladies and gentlemen, prepare to be serenaded by the angelic voices of Martinu Voices under the direction of the one and only Lukas Vasilek. This album, "Martinu: Madrigals," is a mesmerizing journey through the intricate and harmonious world of Czech composer Bohuslav Martinu.

From the moment you hit play, you are transported to a realm where lush vocal textures and expressive melodies reign supreme. The choir's impeccable blend and Vasilek's masterful direction create a sonic tapestry that is both ethereal and hauntingly beautiful.

The Madrigals themselves are a stunning showcase of Martinu's compositional genius, with each piece unfolding like a carefully crafted musical puzzle. The intricate harmonies and dynamic shifts keep you on the edge of your seat, never knowing where the music will take you next.

One standout track is "Madrigals for Mixed Choir, Strings and Percussion," which effortlessly blends traditional choral elements with modern flair. The interplay between the voices and instruments is nothing short of magical, leaving you in a state of awe and appreciation for Martinu's innovative vision.

In conclusion, "Martinu: Madrigals" is a must-listen for any music lover looking to experience the beauty and power of choral music. Martinu Voices and Lukas Vasilek have truly outdone themselves with this album, solidifying their rightful place in the pantheon of great musical ensembles. Trust me, you won't regret immersing yourself in this transcendent musical experience.
