@ billis123: Okay, trombone, not "trumpet". Unlike some people who evidently have more internet time than I do, I cannot pay as close attention as I would like to every video I happen to listen to. And I usually pay more attention to the music, in any case. But I am grateful for the correction.
European groups are certainly not the only ones. There are several in the States and elsewhere (Toronto's "Tafelmusik," for example). But the greater weight and number of them by far are in Europe. The USA for the most part still hasn't gotten the memo about the value of period performance practice. Too many American orchestras are still performing 18th Century works in a late 19th/early 20th Century style. It displays an alarming level of ignorance, for one thing, intentional or not. So sad!
Indeed there are good groups outside Europe. And don't forget this isn't just any European group, it is one of the best ones, conducted by Jean Tubery, who is very good.
I've heard Monteverdi's vespers live by him, it was great ! Claudio took his part in the job, of course :-)
Ah yes--Only the Europeans know how to do choral/period music correctly! (This is from a reluctant American.) Ladies and gentlemen, this performance is marvelous--spectacular! Absolutely soaring soprano/trumpet lines, only possible due to the complete and utter absence of vibrato. What a talented and erudite group of performers! Bravissimo!
@MusicaAustralis Yes, European groups are not the only ones--so--please let us hear more from non-European groups who are just as good. God knows I have never heard any here in the States. ....
I love this piece!
I love this performance!
I love this video!
I love the democracy of this music: Every One is important!

I see also a cello in the low choir: Gabrieli died in 1612, it was already played?

@tjwhite1963 Hmmm I don't agree with that comment at all. As far as I know there are really groups in the 3 Americas...

European groups are really good but they are not the only ones.
