Description:
Sir Thomas Allen also praised it highly! The Prince Consort makes its debut! This is the debut album of the Prince Consort, a new ensemble formed by six elite students who studied at the Royal College of Music in England. The ensemble's high level of adaptability, outstanding singing ability, and ensemble skills for solo singing with piano accompaniment to quintuple singing are so impressive that Sir Thomas Allen, one of Britain's greatest baritone singers, has given his stamp of approval on the group. The fact that Sir Thomas Allen is the patron of the Prince Consort also conveys the extraordinary expectations of the British musical world for the Prince Consort. The breadth of the selection of songs and the courage of choosing songs by Ned Rorem for their debut album, instead of music from their native England, are also extraordinary. The Prince Consort is a must-see. Comment courtesy of Tokyo M-Plus.
