Escala (group)
Escala (formerly known as Scala) is an electronic string quartet, from London, England who rose to fame when they performed on and reached the final of the second series of Britain's Got Talent on ITV1 in May 2008.
The quartet also features on "Louder than Words", from Pink Floyd's The Endless River (2014)
Background
Two of the four members of eScala, Izzy Johnston and Chantal Leverton, were part of Wild, a similar five-piece classical group who were signed to EMI and released an album with the label in 2005. The four members of the group met in 2005 when they were part of the string section on an arena tour with McFly. Three of them, Victoria Lyon, Chantal Leverton and Tasya Hodges performed with Jeff Wayne on his War of the Worlds Tour in 2006.
Britain's Got Talent
In the first round of the show, eScala performed a "techno version" of Palladio by the Welsh composer Karl Jenkins, and were put through to the semi-finals by judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan. At the semi-final, they performed an instrumental version of "Live And Let Die" by Paul McCartney and Wings, receiving a positive reaction from the judges, with Piers Morgan describing it as "the best performance of the week". They won the public vote to win the semi-final and secure a place in the final with nine other acts.
Escala (album)
Escala is the self-titled debut album by British quartet Escala, who appeared on the ITV talent contest Britain's Got Talent. It was released on 25 May 2009 in the United Kingdom.
Release
Escala revealed their debut album to an audience of about 400 media at Whitehall Palace, London on 23 September 2008. The album release was pushed back numerous times, to 1 June 2009. Then the album's release was brought forward by one week to 25 May 2009.
Recording
The album was produced by Trevor Horn and recorded mainly at Sarm West London. Parts of "Kashmir" recorded at Sarm West Coast, Los Angeles, and the orchestra for the album was recorded at Angel Studios, London.
Album analysis
The album begins with "Requiem for a Tower", which is a re-orchestrated version of "Lux Aeterna" from the 2000 film, Requiem for a Dream. The piece will be familiar to viewers of Britain's Got Talent, as it is frequently used on the show. Another group's version of the piece is used by Sky Sports for their News, for whom Escala had been included as a part of an advertising campaign with the second track on the album, "Palladio", a version of "Palladio I, Allegretto" from Karl Jenkins' Diamond Music. It was performed by the group when they were on Britain's Got Talent. The third track is the Led Zeppelin cover, "Kashmir", and features guitarist Slash of hard rock bands Guns n' Roses and Velvet Revolver. In 2009 Escala returned to Britain's Got Talent to perform their version of "Kashmir" un-competitively on the second live semi-final.

Pohjoisen Valkoinen Kuolema
by: AzaghalValo myrkyttää uneni
Viha polttaa suonissani
Saasta pyhäksi julistettu
Valheet tahraavat valkoisen lumen
Läpi routaisen pellon, yli kyisen maan
Tuuli pohjoisesta kantaa ikivanhaa tarinaa
Kansasta jumalattomasta, ikiyöstä siinneestä
Kansasta lannistumattomasta, pohjoisen valkoinen kuolema
Verestä ja raudasta
Rakennettu maa
Tuskasta ja uhrauksesta
Syntynyt kansakunta
Tekopyhät kirjasi
Korventakoot lihaasi roviolla
Kristinusko liekeissä
