In researching this review, I was surprised at just how many there are, each with their own particular twist on the subject (see the ‘ Alternatives’ box).īroadly speaking, they fall into two categories: those with ‘word builders’ that allow you to type in any words and (hopefully) have the choir sing them with some degree of intelligibility and those that employ some sort of scripting to chain together pre-recorded syllables, whole words or tempo-sync’ed phrases, often in Latin, to give the impression of words that may or may not have any real meaning. Given the predominantly orchestral bias of these, it’s no surprise that choirs are in big demand, particularly those that offer some means of verbalising lyrics, be they in Latin, Russian, English or just plain invented gobbledegook.
