Music reviews of Birds on Fire: Jewish Music for Viols

Music Review: Expand your classical music horizon both forward and backward
Rating: 5 Stars

This is primarily Tudor-era music, and specifically Jewish English music. That is despite Jews having officially been booted from England by Edward III back in 1290; modern scholarship says some Italians of apparent Jewish background were among court musicians.

If you're familiar with Fretwork, you know it's simply great; if you're not familiar with the group, buy both this CD and its recording of Bach's "Art of Fugue."

The period music is sandwiched by a klezmer-like piece by modern composer Orlando Gough, worth a good listen itself. "Birds on Fire" becomes the title for the album as well.
