New CD!
highly addictive…utterly captivating
finesse, flexibility, and expressive detail…played as communicatively as if there was a text.
such a feast for the ears…wonderfully interpreted
a leading ensemble in the field of Baroque music...with, moreover, the most beautiful imaginable timbres
ravishing harmonies…distinct and vivid sonic tableaus…well inspired!
Breakthrough of the Year…breathtaking
There is a real physicality to this ensemble’s recorded performance, one that made me want to see them perform live…this is a terrific disc.
technically expert, flexible in phrasing, and stylish in ornamentation, fully aware of this music’s rich sense of theater
nothing prepares the listener for the brilliant performances here
The disc’s title is no exaggeration…extravagance and virtuosity…Everyone in Quicksilver commands attention…Fantasticus, indeed.
enthralls the audience…it's truly a good sign that while listening, you forget about the virtuosity involved.
True avant-garde is only occasionally heard in the Baroque canon… diverse, unique, and exciting…accomplished, and beautiful…real vibrancy and imagination
The unusual repertory is worthwhile all on its own, and when it’s played this expertly by musicians who are leaders in early music performance you have a special treat to enjoy.
Quicksilver appears on the Grammy-nominated release from The Crossing, featured in recordings of a live performance of Dieterich Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu nostri (BuxWV 75).
