    I suspect Bach would be in tears if he heard this performance. The Swingles are unquestionably one of the best vocal groups EVER!

      I don´t know if Bach was in tears. No one can really say. But I nearly am.

    I remember hearing the Swingle Singers during my last year in high school in '62. I fell in love with them and I'm still in love with them over 60 years later.

    I am one of the camera operators for LiveFromLondon and this concert was definitely my favourite to film.
    Loved the show. :)

      What a lovely experience! I remember this from the original singers who were spectacular. This is just as good. How nice you could be there.

      @@Choicelady320 I had totally forgotten about the swingle singers until putting on my TV this morning and seeing them on a 1975 addition of the Two Ronnies. Merry Christmas 🎄.

    Wow. So many of the ‘post original’ Swingle efforts fall flat IMO, but this one has the heart of the original, plus the vocal snare effect....Total win.

    I don't know how many times I have listened to this, but it is a lot. But every time I do, the tears flow like Niagara Falls, not tears of sadness but tears of absolute joy. If I feel any sadness it is because Bach hasn't been with us for a long long time; but his music will live forever.

    They are as lovely as they ever have been...but I can't get past the distraction of the beat box noises and limited bass vocals. I wish they'd just hire a drummer and string bass player.
