Dare to Breathe is a mixed quintet from the St Paul, Minnesota.
Trained classical singers all, this recording demonstrates a remarkable versatility,
and a whimsical sensibility that will charm and impress. The first track is
"Dream A Little Dream Of Me," an arrangement in the jazz swing idiom, that is
probably the most straightforward on the CD. A feast of aural impressions, joining
together sources as diverse as folk traditionals from Georgia, Silesia and the
Ukraine, adaptations of poems by literary giants Tennyson and Shakespeare set
to original music, and selections from "Mary Poppins" and Hans Christian Anderson,
soon follow. Dare to Breathe share many characteristics with EnglandÕs KingÕs
Singers, and even sound somewhat like them, on songs such as "Kolyskova" Ð the
refinement, polish and broad range are similar. A collection for the discriminating
ear, indeed!
