Our Take

Not exactly your typical Friday night playlist, Claire van Kampen's latest release, "Twelfth Night / Richard Third," is a whirlwind of Shakespearean theatrics set to music. Let's just say, if you thought Shakespeare was dramatic before, wait till you hear it accompanied by a full orchestra.

The album kicks off with "Twelfth Night," a jaunty, toe-tapping ode to mistaken identities and gender-bending antics. Van Kampen's compositions perfectly capture the whimsical nature of the play, with playful melodies and intricate harmonies that keep you on your toes.

But just when you think you've got the hang of it, "Richard Third" comes crashing in like a thunderstorm, with dark, brooding tones that perfectly capture the Machiavellian machinations of the titular character. Van Kampen's use of dissonance and unexpected chord progressions adds a layer of tension that keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Overall, "Twelfth Night / Richard Third" is a bold and ambitious project that takes Shakespearean storytelling to new heights. Whether you're a fan of the Bard or just looking for something a bit out of the ordinary, this album is sure to leave you intrigued and entertained. So grab your ruffled collar and feathered hat, and give it a spin. You won't be disappointed.
