Winter

VOCES8
Classical · 2016

Harmonizing with balance and grace, the excellent a cappella ensemble Voces8 cuts to the bone with these glassy, atmospheric works. “For Now I Am Winter” gestures toward Pärt and Ligeti with its glacial dissonance and sees its musicians moving in tandem through brilliantly shifting clusters of sound.
