"Pantagruel are astonishing - musicians of impeccable skill and facility, intelligence and wit. They exhibit real "ethos" - that is, Truth within themselves - an 'authenticity' of purpose, an excellent sense of history, yet up-dated and relevant for Now. Here is 'Early Music' going somewhere quite new! I love them.”

played instruments, but the pure and crystal clear voice of Hannah
Morrison. "

clear soprano voice of Hannah Morrison using authentic copies of
historical instruments and thereby bring to life this era in such a
alluring manner, that each of the eleven tracks brings delightful
images to enchant the minds-eye of the listener."
