Semiscon Vocal Band
The Taiwanese "a cappella" sensation Semiscon Vocal Band was formed with 12 members in 2002. With their creative use of voices, texture, rhythm and harmony, Semiscon takes the concept of imitating musical instruments to a new level. One of their hits is Soul Bossa Nova in which different members imitate trumpets, saxophones and a drum set. Semiscon is a group of performers as much as it is a group of singers and they get full marks for personality.Semiscon Vocal Band is dedicated to contemporary "a cappella", jazz, pop and rock as well as some classical avant-garde. If you were one of those young folks in college that never missed the midnight "a cappella" concert, you won't want to miss this show, with arrangements from Joni Mitchell, Alicia Keys and more of your favorite singers. "A Cappella" has a tendency to come out poorly in recordings, but Vocal Line's sound is stellar, which says something about how good the group sounds when performing live. |
