| |  | Accentus - Transcriptions
This film was shot as a result of the huge success of the two volumes of “Transcriptions” performed by the award-winning choral group “Accentus” under its conductor Laurence Equilbey. The director Andy Sommer has created what he describes as “a sort of ‘a cappella musical’ focusing on the repertoire of transcriptions”. “If you have missed the two marvellous “Transcriptions” volumes from Laurence Equilbey and her wonderful Accentus group, this might be a perfect introduction. Otherwise, this is a fine complement. A film to match the albums for sheer quality...To revisit two of the most impressive choral recordings of the past five years in the company of this visually inspired film is a true delight. In a nutshell, this is beautiful music, beautifully sung and beautifully filmed.” Gramophone Magazine, June 2008 | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |
