Bond, Born Review

Overall Rating

Bond, Born - This is a crossover project featuring a very attractive, classically-trained string quartet of young women playing songs over poppy dance beats and rhythms, effectively melding dance music to classical to folk and pop. It will probably be scorned by classical music fans who will see it as a cynical marketing ploy to get a classical music CD into the pop music charts, but it is still a very interesting album which can be listened to on more than one level - either for the catchiness or for the musicianship. It will be interesting to see where they go from here.
