Five voices which have become legendary for their homogenous sound. Five singers who jointly explore the character of each song in order to bring it to life for the audience. Five singers so perfectly in tune with each other that their ‘vocal instrument’ spans the range of an entire orchestra.
Listening to amarcord reminds us that singing is the most natural form of music – produced by the body for the human soul.
