Passionate!

"When I got this CD (after hearing portions of it on Millenium of Music), I couldn't stop listening to it! This collection of 16th and 17th c. folk carols from Provence will shatter all your conceptions regarding the boundaries of "early music." Listen to the first song, "Bressarello," a lullaby Joseph sings to the baby Jesus. The instrumentation and the vocal style sound more like a Provençal gypsy folk band than an early music ensemble...There are times, when the three female vocalists come together in exquisitely passionate harmony, I am brought to tears.I have been searching for another album with vocals as inspiring as these. The vocalists and instrumentalists pull off both the Renaissance style and the provençal folk idiom with virtuosity and joie de vivre."
