The Comedian Harmonists were a German vocal ensemble from the 1930s whose inventive, mischievous, and occasionally even seriously unhinged arrangements were nothing if not joyous and affirming. This 22-track set, drawn from the personal collection of Timothy Massey, is a complete delight from start to finish, and includes such treasures as the group's amazing vocalization of the overture to "The Barber of Seville," a moving and elegant take on Duke Ellington's "Creole Love Call," the odd "The Old Ship Piano," and an imaginative interpretation of Johann Strauss' "Perpetuum Mobile."
