5.0 out of 5 stars You must buy this!, February 21, 2001
By Michael J. Korman (Connecticut, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
There's not much I can say about this album. It's perfect. Completely a cappella, it shows off everything that make the King's Singers one of the world's most masterful vocal ensembles. My two personal favorite tracks are "She's Like the Swallow" and "If Music Be the Food of Love." The solo on "She's Like the Swallow," a sad Canadian folksong, is very beautiful. Tracks such as "La valse a mille temps" and "Down With Love" add a certain amount of humor to the collection.I do not regret purchasing this album in any way. It represents some of the best work that the King's Singers have to offer. You must buy it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very, very, very (did I mention Very?) good!, October 22, 1999
By A Customer
A wonderful selection, beautifully performed! Some of these songs I have wanted to hear and own for so long!

An Silvia (Schubert) = Who is Sylvia: they sing a voice-only arrangement that is arguably an improvement of Schubert (okay, pax, you purists). As you may know, this is a setting by Schubert of a poem by Shakespeare. It is just marvellous.

In my estimation, this CD is worth getting for Sylvia alone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for KS fan, April 5, 2009
By APO Shopper "APO Shopper" (Overseas most of the time) - See all my reviews
Reader beware, the Kings Singers can do no wrong in my mind. I have seen them live many times and own several cd's. This one does not disappoint.
