Piffaro discs make this sedentary fool want to get up and dance. Renaissance dance music is a much-underrated source of general delight, anyway. You don't have to be the kind of specialist listener who loves medieval masses to get a kick out of this tasty, highly rhythmic music--the disco of an earlier era. The tunes are appealing, the sounds of the varied instruments consistently delightful. I rate discs of Renaissance dances not so much by their authenticity, a debatable matter anyway, but rather by their danceability. Piffaro discs rank consistently high in this respect, and they are realistically recorded. --Leslie Gerber

Triumphant!.......2006-12-01

This is truly one of the best albums of Renaissance music currntly available! Purely instrumental! Much of it appears to be music for a royal court event or the like, with much use of brass and wind instruments. There are also many selections for the festival setting, usually involving the bagpipes and hurdy-gurdy. Too many albums of ancient music "pad" the content with monotonous choral polyphonic selections, perhaps starting out with one or two really good instrumental pieces. However, they did not do that in this one!

Excellent Renaissance Faire. Buy it!.......2005-11-15

'Piffaro The Renaissance Band' is a Philadelphia group who has done several superior albums of Renaissance music for the label 'Archiv', late of Deutche Grammaphone, now part of Polygram. I was astonished when I heard from a student of one of the directors, Robert Wiemken, that the band is paid virtually nothing to make the record and have it distributed. While I would expect that from a minor label, it is surprising that an act should make it to Deutche Grammaphone and not be paid for their recording. I go into this minor digression because I am especially impressed by this recording and all their others as well.

I do take issue with it's being labelled a recording of 'wind' music, as there is ample representation from the family of string instruments, most famously the guitar and the hurdy gurdy.

Although I really enjoy 'old music', I'm not an expert on it, but I set out to distinguish this music from modern stuff, and the two I can find are the presence here of a lot of drone instruments such as the bagpipe and the hurdy gurdy and the absence of instruments such as the clarinet which give us that lushly woody tenor we hear in pieces such as 'Rapsody in Blue' or in some of Kurt Weill's German stage pieces. We also certainly miss the rich sounds of the piano, as the pianoforte has not been invented yet.

If you like old music, this band is a 'must hear'!

Definitely Worth the Listening.......2004-01-26

Simply lovely. Some whimsical, some more technically serious. In all, definitely worth the money and the time. One of my new favorites.

Superb musicianship on ancient instruments...........2001-10-03

I wish composers were still writing for hurdy-gurdy @ crumhorn...what a wonderful sound. I especially liked "La Parma". I do believe a modern tunesmith has taken that melody @ recently made a rather haunting popular song from it; a female vocalist, I think. If anyone out there can remember what the name of that modern tune is @ will post it here, it will save me some on-going mental annoyance. You won't go wrong in buying this album!

Piffaro Renaissance Band Superb.......2001-05-20

This CD has me dancing in the streets. I have played holes in the recording. The musicianship is extraordinary with excitement, love and a great warm sense of pleasure taken by everyone involved. Renaissance instruments are not generally known for subtlety or nuance, but these players work miracles. The percussion sections are also integral to the whole and thrilling, where appropriate. Piffaro, please keep your music coming.

Beautiful Recording.......2006-11-04

This CD sparkles from the first note with beautiful playing, energetic interpretation, a fine sense of tempo motion, and, best of all, production values that match the excellence of the performers. The quality never lets up. After numerous listenings, I still experience the inner thrill moments that come from hearing excellence in a performance. There is a clarity in this recording that is remarkable, clarity of production sound and ambiance, clarity of playing, and clarity of ensemble. It is a real joy to listen to.

The Splendor of Italy -- and of The Whole Noyse.......2005-09-15

The Whole Noyse takes its name from the term used to describe a complete wind-band during the Renaissance period. And the Noyse these players make is beautiful indeed. Exceptionally well crafted performances informed by as much artistry as scholarship make this CD one of the most pleasant hour-long experiences anyone can have.
Fine performances of vocal music from the period (late Renaissance) are very easy to find, but the instrumental music, especially for winds, tends thus far to be very under-represented on recording, owing in great part to the difficulty of not just finding but playing instruments like the cornetto and the curtal. The 5 members of The Whole Noyse rise admirably to the challenge of playing these difficult instruments as well as the more common sackbuts (fore-runners of the modern trombone) and recorders.
Many of the selections on the CD are arrangements of vocal music, reflecting the Italian taste for playing, in particular, French songs on instruments. Many of the names on the disc will not be familiar to even the most hard core devotee of Early Music, but there are a few familiar faces, among them, Josquin, Isaac, and Gabrieli.
If you're looking for something new for your collection, or a gift for a friend who enjoys the music of this period, this is a rare treat and a truly unique recording.
