English Renaissance music cannot sound better than this November 10, 2008
P. Alvarez (Killeen, Texas United States)
I am not much into arrengements of
great works, but I must admit that
the music on this CD never sounded
better, and will not sound any
better than this. Canadian Brass
did a wonderful job when they
recorded this music, is as
if the composers knew that some
day their music would be arrenged for brass
and again it might be the universality
of the music it self that it or the
simple way that Canadian Brass played or made it sound
or more simple, a combination of all. Whatever
it was the results were glorious.
English Renaissance music done beautifully. May 13, 2007
Roy Kallman (Fairfax, VA)
I bought this CD to have some authentic English Renaissance music in my collection,
and fell in love with it. The Earl of Oxford March is particularly appealing.
They don't come much better. August 23, 2005

The incomparable Canadian Brass make this album a rare treat. From the first notes of Holborne's "Galliard" to the magnificent complexity of Byrd's "Fitzwilliam Suite", their renditions are sheer delight. The music is both relaxing and enjoyably stimulating. Repeated hearings allow the listener to discover some hidden turn or embellishment that was not noticed before, or to appreciate again the antiphonal and complementary interplay of the instruments in the antique harmonies they create. A most enjoyable recording.
The finest brass ensembles all on 1 album January 31, 2002

I got this CD quite a while ago, and I still listen to it almost daily. Best at night in a candlelit room while it's raining sipping fine wine and reminising of the Renaissance festival! (wierd, I know. But that's just me) If you have an interest in this time period, you won't regret buying this CD.
An interesting spin on English Renaissance Music August 9, 2000
Maggie Boleyn (tudortimes.com)
23 out of 23 found this review helpful
The composers of 16th century England were able to take the music of other countries and produce something uniquely their own. So, too, has Canadian Brass taken English Renaissance music and made it into something wonderfully different. Immediately accessible (and acceptable) to modern ears, these tunes are a splendid treat. Almans and Galliards take on a whole new flavor when done entirely by brass instruments.
