New Violinist to Join Chatham Baroque! "Chatham Baroque is masterful... The ensemble plays with great tonal beauty and stands up to any ensemble from across the Atlantic." (Early Music America) "Chatham Baroque is one of the most spectacularly gifted and innovative of all the groups in this American wave of talent." (CD Now) "These outstanding musicians achieve a full, rich, harmonious sound, playing with energy and finesse." (American Record Guide) "...(D)elivered with technical flair and a lively sense of abandon... The performances are stunningly vibrant and inventive... I can't recommend this CD too highly. It's one of the best I've heard in a long time." (Wholenote) "[Chatham Baroque's] performances are totally delightful, full of energy and feeling...." (Journal of the Southern California Early Music Society) "The playing of the Chatham Baroque ensemble, its continuo supplied by gamba and theorbo or guitar, is excellent and full of vitality." GOLDBERG Magazine "Chatham Baroque rocks, dudes." (San Antonio Express-News) "The performances are spirited and musical, with an energy sometimes missing from classical music performances." (Musick) "This compelling exploration...not only is Chatham Baroque's best recording effort to date but also belongs in the ranks of the best early-music discs. The album is wholly enjoyable from beginning to end." (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette) "The dances in particular are played with real panache (try the infectious Jacaras to see what I mean)." (Gramophone Early Music) "...Stylistic, technically accomplished and musical...." (Columbus Dispatch) "This life-on-the-edge energy comes across on the disc; the ensemble members play like their lives depended on every note." (CD Now) "(Chatham Baroque) rocketed through settings of Scottish and Irish folk tunes, powered by the magnetic pull of their primeval rhythms and...untamable virtuosic fiddling...." (The Washington Post) "Colorful virtuosity... Chatham Baroque gave zesty accounts of a group of Spanish dances." (New York Times) |
