Weihnachten bin ich zu Haus

The title of the vocal ensemble amarcord captures a feeling we all know: as the year draws to a close, we head home to be with family and celebrate Christmas together. The Leipzig ensemble has brought back a handful of festive gems from its international tours.

Cleverly arranged in close harmony and sung with stylistic confidence, each song holds a little surprise worth hearing. Christmas songs from Germany, France, Sweden, Catalonia, Trinidad and beyond come across with a lively, jazzy feel, and the attentive listener will catch more than one wry, humorous wink in the delivery.

amarcord - five male voices in perfect harmonic balance, combining virtuoso vocal craft with musical poetry. That artistry has earned them standing ovations at more than 1,500 concerts in over 50 countries.
