Vocal Harmonies: Bohemian Rhapsody


The Ten Tenors: Bohemian Rhapsody

[purchase]

Darius was mentioning our lack of vocal groups so far for this week's theme, so I hope this group fits the bill. The Three Tenors in 1990 started a run on various assemblages of classical vocalists performing pop hits to great fanfare (Wikipedia lists the Irish Tenors, Tenor Australis, the Three Canadian Tenors, Three Tenors and a Soprano, the Three Sopranos, The Sopranos, Three Mo' Tenors, Three Countertenors, the Three Chinese Tenors, and Il Divo, among others). The Ten Tenors are a young Australian ensemble who've put out quite a few CDs since their beginnings in 1998. And of course, you can't go wrong with Queen, like, ever. I love how they slip in a bit of ABBA too in their live performance.
