Why This CD Matters
The London Gabrieli Brass Ensemble performs Renaissance and Baroque music arranged for brass, with a sound that ranges from festive and dance-like to stately and ceremonial. The program pairs dances from “La Danserye” and “An Elizabethan Suite” with works such as Bach’s “Contrapunctus IX” and Purcell’s “Music For The Funeral Of Queen Mary.” It offers a varied introduction to the rich, clear sound of an early music brass ensemble.
Collector Note
This is the 1993 US Musical Heritage Society club edition, catalog 416985A, distinct from the earlier UK ASV release. Includes the six-page English booklet, and the disc presents a 73:05 program spanning Renaissance and Baroque repertoire.
