Christmas singing

Christmas singing, 1996

This first CD of ReBelcanto (an extended version of the 1995 MC) contains, with one exception, Christmas music arranged exclusively by Miroslav Raichl. His original and inventive approach places it amongst the best Christmas CDs ever issued in Czech Republic. Within its 26 numbers you can find not only Czech and European Christmas songs, but also some more exotic titles. /54 min.

ReBelcanto

ReBelcanto, 1998

The third album from ReBelcanto profiles their sacred repertoire. Again, Miroslav Raichl is responsible for most of the arrangements found on this CD, and it includes probably his best-known composition, Milovani bez vidani (Loving without meeting) written on anonymous medieval lyrics. Besides music ranging from baroque to contemporary there are two sacred arias and four Negro spirituals. /48 min.

Spirituals

Spirituals, 2007

The fourth CD of ReBelcanto contains beside american black spirituals three well-known african sacral songs and also one tribal chant from Taiwan. The majority of compositions are so called author arrangements - arrangements made for the ensemble, using the song itself as an inspiration. The new album brings beside popular arrangements of Miroslav Raichl eight works of his young follower Petr Hostinsky. The album Spirituals gives a picture of the ensemble after seven years of busy concert life together with its new conductor.
