Spring is here! Cast off your Winter blues with this program of Springtime music - bird songs, love songs, and May dances, highlighting Piffaro's rich and varied instrumentarium.
“Widely regarded as North America's masters of music for Renaissance wind band” (St Paul Pioneer Press), Piffaro delights audiences throughout the world with highly polished recreations of the rustic music of the peasantry and the elegant sounds of the official wind bands of the late Medieval and Renaissance periods. Its musicians perform on shawms, dulcians, sackbuts, recorders, krumhorns, bagpipes, lutes, guitars, harps, and a variety of percussion — all careful reconstructions of instruments from the period.
