Description:
The male vocal quartet Quartnal, described as "one of the most promising vocal groups in recent years," presents a new work that offers wonderful harmonies and endless possibilities, The male vocal quartet Quartnal won the first prize in the ensemble category at the German Choral Federation Competition in Hamburg in 2010. Their reputation has spread throughout Europe, where they were acclaimed as "the most promising vocal group in recent years," releasing their debut album "Another Way" on Sony Classical in 2013 and "Everytime" in 2017. Quartnal's repertoire spans not only classical music from the Renaissance to the 21st century, but also a wide range of genres from folk to pop music. Various contemporary composers have also written for them, and they have collaborated with various arrangers and pop musicians. This album is formed by beautiful romantic songs from the 19th and 20th centuries. Moreover, the main point is that it is not accompanied by piano, but is closer to pure a cappella, performed by four unaccompanied male voices. This formation of two tenors, a baritone, and a bass has its roots in the early 19th century, and the album includes not only famous works by Goethe ("King of Thule"), Heine ("Lorelei"), Eichendorff ("Adultery"), Mendelssohn ("Sailing"), and Wolf, but also works by organist and composer Joseph G. Schumann, who was a member of the orchestra at the time of the "Trois Chorégraphiques". composer Josef G. Rheinberger (1839-1901), as well as lesser-known works that are true discoveries, such as Josef Kromolicki (1882-1961), who led the choir for over 50 years. The works focus on romantic themes of love, nature, joy, and melancholy, sung by the meltingly beautiful voice of Qualtnar. In addition, folk songs such as "The Hunter Walked Along the Pond" and "The Wedding of the Little Bird" are arranged in a modern style.Through mimicking instrumental accompaniment and playing with the sound of words as voices, the passages are dramatically enhanced, adding a new twist to well-known classical music that is at once operatic and humorous. This album reminds us once again of the wonderful harmonies of the human voice and its infinite possibilities. Sony Music
