Quire Cleveland

Quire Cleveland is the Emperor's New Clothes of the art world. With a craft as tortured and as artificial as its name, Quire offers little of artistic value. Early music requires skilled finesse to perform properly. Unfortunately, with Quire the music tends to sound little more than a glorified vocal exercise with just about as much excitement. Some of the performers are quite good. Unfortunately, many of the others are obviously past their prime; even a lay person can observe that some individuals are off beat, do not know the material, and are along for the ride. However, Quire Cleveland does excel in fundraising. The only explanation for this is that these benefactors have not actually had to witness the show (which is often on par to an Our Gang Production). Save your money. And save your time - even the upcoming free concert is overpriced.
