Chirleison is a band which comes from Sardinia, Italian of origin and on this romantic tinted neo-folk cd they combine themes from the classical past of Italy with a richly orchestrated and well polished sound to which the heavenly vocals of Alessia are a fascinating addition. Heavy percussion and sensitive delicate instrumentation consisting of guitar, flutes and various subtile sounds play their game and do their little dance while Daniele completes the musical spectrum with a melancholic sounding acoustic guitar.Beautiful melody lines and intensive passionated vocals meander around eachother and pu a spell on the listener. The effect is that as a listener you imagine yourself in a completely different and long forgotten world. The world of the ancient classical era in the region of the Mediterranean see and islands. The moment you realise this, all of a sudden soundsamples of emerging waves appear to the surface. Just perfect. A Whisper is a seldomly beautiful and sensitive, imaginative cd. A real recommendation for anyone who is searching for just and professionally produced richly orchestrated heavenly vocals music. Also, note the extraordinary tasteful photography artwork by Martin Pels.
