One of my favorite things to enjoy after the holidays is listening to Bill Murray and world-renowned cellist Jan Vogler. Luckily, they teamed up for the album New Worlds.Bill Murray is known for picking projects that many would not expect of him. While this album is no different, I will say – who knew he could carry a tune?New World first dropped in 2017 and uses multiple music mediums. While the album includes a few classical songs from composers like Bach, the overall sound is transformed by Murray's voice and Vogler on the cello. The song list takes a unique turn into film themes like “Moon River”, that play as a backdrop to Murray reciting excerpts from “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn”. Finally, the album takes another hard turn into Broadway show tunes from the likes of “West Side Story” and “Porgy and Bess”.This album is always a thrill for me to listen to after the holidays because it feels like attending the theater while on winter vacation, but within the comfort of my own home... and it has Bill Murray in it!
