  • The Swingle Singers are a mostly a cappella vocal group formed in 1962 in Paris, France with Ward Swingle, Anne Germain, Jeanette Baucomont and Jean Cussac. Christiane Legrand, the sister of composer Michel Legrand, was the lead soprano in the original French group. There are a total of eight members in the group: two sopranos, two altos, two tenors and two basses. In 1973, the original French group disbanded and Ward Swingle moved to London and re-formed the group with new members as Swingle II. They would later perform and record under the name The Swingles and then, The New Swingle Singers and eventually, simply, The Swingle Singers. Since the London group's incarnation, the group has never disbanded. Members have come and gone and the other members have re-auditioned for the voice part that has left.

    Oh man, I knew this was going to be good simply because it's the Swingle Singers, but I was expecting a corny rendition. This is amazing!

    It all works! Even the "noo-dle-noo-dle-noo-dle-noo-dle-..." in the accompaniment.

    Would like to hear what they would do with the Imperial March and I Dovrgubens Kongshall (Hall of the Mountain King, Grieg).

    It's hard to criticize the Swingles because they are almost perfect in every way, but I have noticed that with the more modern group they seem not to make as much use of dynamics the same extent that the first groups did. It makes their arrangements slightly less interesting. However, they are still great!

    But I like the song "In the Hall of the Mountain King" more. I really recommend it to everyone.

    You do know the Fox Fanfare isn't part of the Star Wars music, don't you?
