Vitamin String Quartet presents a unique and captivating take on the biggest hits of 2021 with their album "VSQ Performs the Hits of 2021, Vol. 1." Released on August 27, 2021, under their own label, Vitamin Records, this album is a refreshing blend of orchestral arrangements that breathe new life into popular tracks. Spanning just over 31 minutes, the album features a diverse range of genres, all masterfully interpreted through the lens of classical strings.
From Lil Nas X's provocative "MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)" to The Weeknd's ethereal "Blinding Lights," and Olivia Rodrigo's heartfelt "driver's license," Vitamin String Quartet reimagines each song with a sophisticated and elegant touch. Their renditions of Dua Lipa's "Levitating" and Doja Cat's "Kiss Me More" showcase their ability to infuse pop anthems with a classical charm, while their take on Glass Animals' "Heat Waves" adds a layer of depth and complexity to the original.
This album is not just a collection of covers; it's a testament to the versatility and skill of Vitamin String Quartet. Their ability to seamlessly transition from one genre to another, while maintaining the integrity of the original songs, is truly impressive. Whether you're a fan of the original artists or simply appreciate the beauty of classical music, this album offers something for everyone.
