Amici Forever, The Opera Band

Excellent rendition of classic music. It provides a "feel good" attitude to a serious genre. One of my favorite CD's for easy listening.

What really struck me about the album was how the voices are used and integrated. The rendition of Nimrod stands out in this regard where the baritone and mezzo soprano voices are used to full effect. This group has a fresh approach to the classics and can't be recommended too highly. The album features a good mix of classical music that should appeal to all tastes.

For anyone who thinks they don't like opera, listen to Amici Forever.

We first saw them perform on the Festival of Remembrance, singing a vocal version of Nimrod, and we've followed them ever since. Go to their concerts, buy their albums. They are not just another G4 or Il Divo. Amici were the first opera band and others followed. Thrilling entertainment, especially at their open air concerts. Only bad point is concerts not frequent enough.

Beautiful music to listen to alone or with friends. People always ask, "Who is this?" when I'm playing one of their CD's. There isn't anything I dislike. I will buy anything that they produce.

If you are not an opera purist and like harmonies Amici Forever, The Opera Band is a really great album - hard to beat for variety of material - very uplifting.

I recommend that anybody with a good taste in music and an open mind towards all genres should go and buy Amici Forever's album entitled 'The Opera Band' - You will not regret it, also you will be able to study with music that doesn't happen to be the usual classical style! BONUS!

Amici Forever, The Opera Band - Much like Il Divo, this is a band formed in pop music style, featuring 5 classically trained opera singers (2 sopranos, bass, 2 tenors). The album consists of vocal music both from opera and pop music rearranged to suit the vocal combinations of the quintet. It's another interesting experiment in melding classical with pop to try and entice a younger generation of top 40 enthusiasts into gaining an appreciation of art music. It's an impressive collection by group of talented young vocalists.
