Finzi CD re-released

A recording of Finzi's Three Short Elegies and Seven Poems of Robert Bridges is being re-released on April 18.

The new recording, by the Quink Vocal Ensemble of the Netherlands, also features songs by Vaughan Williams.

Since its debut in 1978, Quink has risen to the top of its field and is invited to perform on prestigious concert series around the world. These five professional singers have developed a unique sound which allows them to illustrate with style and expressiveness the great variety of a cappella music.

Quink's repertoire varies widely and consists of a cappella music from the Renaissance and Baroque eras, as well as works by Romantic composers. The ensemble often performs folk song and close harmony arrangements and it concludes its performances with lighter arrangements.

Quink has introduced many new works both of established and modern masters. A number of contemporary Dutch, German and American compositions have been dedicated to Quink.

This particular release, a reissue of a CD from 1993, is now being made available through the group’s current record label Challenge Classics.
