Princeton Singers, The Old, New Borrowed Blues (CD)

Be the first to review this product

Since Dr. Steven Sametz became artistic director of The Princeton Singers, he has instilled in this 18-voice ensemble the profound musicality that has enabled him to compose and arrange commissioned works for the likes of The Dale Warland Singers, the King of Thailand and Chanticleer. In fact, Chanticleer joins as guest artist with the Singers to premiere haunting "Dudaryku - A Village Scene" on this recording of mostly world music, as seen through the lens of a "legit" composer and arranger. Other Sametz creations included here are Bosnian "Ne Sedi, Djemo," Asian "Ngam Sang Duan" and "La Villanella" which even has yodelers! For a surprising change, the CD includes jazzy "Do I Love You/We Are In Love" - very cool! - and "Blue Skies." (51:01 2002)
