Spring is here! Cast off your Winter blues and get your toes tapping with this program of Springtime music. Bird songs, love songs, and May dances will be vehicles for Piffaro’s rich and varied instrumentarium: reeds, brass, recorders, plucked strings, and percussion of all shapes and sizes. Our final concert of the year promises to send you out into warmer weather with a smile on your face!
“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.
