Circus McGurkus, The - The Circus McGurkus

SKU RECREC79
A Swiss quintet who feature vocals/banjo, soprano sax/flute/accordion, clarinet, bass clarinet and double bass. The music is well orchestrated and quite wonderful, while I find the lyrics a bit smart-aleck-ish personally, but those who enjoy humor in music (I generally don't) will probably feel much differently than me. "The composer, writer and banjo-player Markus Schonholzer (formerly of "No Secrets In The Family", another RecRec band) and his outstanding four piece ensemble captivate us with their complex musical landscape full of humorous and eccentric scenarios. Refreshingly accessible and with coherent arrangements, this is music that manages to be playing in the often over-reverent genre of chamber music. There are rogues at work here; mischievous, spirited and demonstrating a wickedly ambiguous irony." [RecRec]
